London, England (My Sportsbook) - West Ham defender Calum Davenport will face an assault charge relating to an incident in August which left him with serious stab wounds to both legs. The 26-year-old has been charged with causing actual bodily harm to a woman involved in the confrontation at Davenport's mother's home. A statement from Davenport's PR company read: "I am deeply shocked and disappointed at the decision that has been made to charge me with assault. "I deny any wrongdoing and will plead not guilty. For legal reasons I am unable to discuss the matter further at this time." Davenport required emergency surgery at Bedford Hospital to repair the damage to his limbs. (Courtesy of sportbox.tv) |
