Racial abuse arrests at Bradford City games

Two men have been arrested for racially aggravated public order offences in separate incidents at recent Bradford City home games, police have said.

A 41-year-old in the West Stand at Valley Parade during the club's game against Chesterfield on 29 December was detained and later released under investigation.

A 39-year-old was arrested in the away end against Grimsby Town on 4 January and has also been bailed pending further inquiries.

In a statement on their website, the club confirmed immediate action was taken to alert police.

"Bradford City AFC has zero tolerance towards racism or any form of discrimination" and urges anyone who experiences or witnesses such behaviour to report it immediately and in as much detail as possible," a spokesperson added.
