Arsenal fan arrested for pointing a laser at Mudryk

A man has been arrested after shining a laser into Mykhaylo Mudryk's face during Arsenal's 3-1 victory over Chelsea at the Emirates on Tuesday night.

Mudryk spent the last half an hour on the pitch after coming in as a substitute.

The 22-year-old winger was booed by the home crowd following his introduction and had a green light flashed on his face during his time on the pitch.

A Metropolitan Police statement read:

"A 21-year-old man was arrested at the Emirates Stadium during the Arsenal v Chelsea match on May 2 on suspicion of a public order offence. He has been taken into custody."

The FA are also looking into the incident. An Arsenal spokesperson said:

"An arrest has been made following the use of a laser during last night's match. This behaviour is dangerous and totally unacceptable, and we will fully support the police with their enquiries and take action as appropriate."

Mudryk had been set to join Arsenal in January before Chelsea swooped in to complete the signing instead.

The Ukraine international has made 14 appearances in all competitions for Chelsea since his January move.
