Henson escapes conduct charges

Rugby Union star Gavin Henson will not be prosecuted over claims he behaved rowdily on a train, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) announced today.

The Wales and Ospreys player was due to appear before Cardiff Magistrates’ Court on Monday accused of using disorderly behaviour, or threatening abusive or insulting words likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress on December 2 last year.
