England rugby star Billy Vunipola has been arrested in Majorca after a violent incident at a pub in Spain.
Vunipola's domestic club Saracens tweeted to say it was aware of an incident involving the player and would be dealing with the matter internally. The 31-year-old was reportedly tasered twice by police after arriving at a bar in the island's capital Palma in the early hours of Sunday morning. Local reports suggest he appeared in court on Sunday and has since been released on bail pending an ongoing investigation.
