McGregor fiancée charged with wasting police time

The fiancée of Rangers goalkeeper Allan McGregor was today charged with wasting police time.

Leah Shevlin, 27, was reported to the Procurator Fiscal after being questioned by detectives investigating a reported assault on the player.

It is understood police are no longer investigating the alleged attack.

McGregor, 28, was said to have suffered eye and back injuries in a disturbance in Glasgow city centre on Saturday February 20.

Shevlin reportedly said she later found him lying injured near their home.

The player received treatment at the city’s Southern General hospital and was later discharged.

McGregor, who was photographed sporting a black eye, reported the alleged assault to police two days later, telling detectives the attack happened in Bath Street.

He was interviewed by police for a second time last Friday.

Today, Shevlin was reportedly arrested at the home in Glasgow’s west end which she shares with McGregor and was charged by police at a city centre police station.

A Strathclyde Police spokeswoman said: “A 27-year-old female is the subject of a report to the Procurator Fiscal for wasting the time of police.”

McGregor was left out of the Scotland squad to face the Czech Republic tonight following the incident but was fit for Sunday’s Old Firm derby, which Rangers won 1-0.
