Former Republic of Ireland international Anthony Stokes was arrested in Crumlin, Dublin on Friday morning following a dangerous driving incident and the discovery of drugs in the vehicle worth an estimated €4,500, according to the Irish Mirror.
The 34-year-old, who had a passenger in the vehicle with him, was brought to Crumlin Garda Station and charged in connection with the dangerous driving incident.
A garda spokesperson said: "Gardaí arrested two men (aged in their 30s) in the early hours of Friday morning, 6th January 2023 in relation to incidents of dangerous driving in Dublin 12.
"A quantity of drugs was also recovered from the offending vehicle.
"Both men were detained in Crumlin Garda Station under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984 and have been charged in relation to this.
“They have since been bailed and are due to appear before court at a later date.”
The ex-Celtic, Sunderland and Arsenal forward won nine caps for the Irish national team during his career.
