Birmingham City striker Marlon King has reportedly been arrested following a hit-and-run incident near London's West End.

The 33-year-old is believed to have been detained by the authorities on suspicion of failing to stop at the scene of an accident.

A male pedestrian in his 40s was taken to hospital after suffering minor injuries from the collision near Paddington station, according to The Sun.

Reports have claimed that King, who has previously been jailed for sexual assault, has been released on bail until September.
