Sterling Faces Court Over Crash, Drugs
26 Aug
Summary
- Raheem Sterling charged with dangerous driving.
- Drug possession and failure to provide specimen charges also filed.
- Court appearance scheduled for September 15th.

Raheem Sterling, a 31-year-old former Arsenal loanee, is scheduled to appear in court on September 15th, 2026. He faces multiple charges, including dangerous driving, possession of nitrous oxide, and failing to provide a specimen.
These charges arise from a single-vehicle collision that occurred on May 28th, 2026, on the M3 southbound near the Minley Interchange. The incident involved a Lamborghini and, according to authorities, no other vehicles or individuals were involved, and no injuries were reported.
Dashcam footage reportedly shows Sterling driving erratically prior to the crash, near the central reservation. Dangerous driving and possession of nitrous oxide each carry a maximum two-year prison sentence. Sterling is currently without a club after his contract was terminated following spells with Arsenal and Feyenoord.
