Former Scotland captain Stuart Hogg arrested once again

Former Scotland, Exeter, and British and Irish Lions fullback Stuart Hogg has been arrested for a third time this year.

Before this latest arrest, Hogg has been previously taken into custody for allegedly stalking and breaching bail conditions.

Police Scotland issued a statement which read:

“A 32-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with stalking offences and breach of bail conditions.

“He is due to appear before Jedburgh Sheriff Court on Tuesday, 10 September, 2024, and a report will be submitted to the procurator fiscal.”
