Best arrested in Child Sex Probe
Football legend George Best has been arrested on suspicion of indecently assaulting a young girl, it emerged today.
The ex-Manchester United star is alleged to have attacked the girl, who is aged under 13, at an address in Surrey last month.
A spokesman for Surrey Police said: "We have received an allegation of indecent assault against a 59-year-old man who was arrested on June 9.
"The allegations concern a girl under the age of 13, and the incident is said to have taken place in May."
He added: "We’re not prepared to discuss details of this investigation any further."

This is very troubling news indeed. I sincerely hope that there is no truth to it and personally I don't believe that there is. Hopefully more details will emerge soon.
