An arrest has been made after a reported incident involving a photograph of Bradley Lowery at the match on Saturday between Sunderland AFC and Coventry City.

Police have arrested a 14-year-old boy following an incident involving a photograph of Bradley Lowery during a match between Sunderland AFC and Coventry City. Footage circulated on social media appearing to show a spectator in the Coventry City end using an image of the late Sunderland fan to taunt visiting supporters at the Coventry Building Society Arena on October 31.
West Midlands Police confirmed the teenager handed himself in and was subsequently arrested on suspicion of a public order offense before being bailed with conditions. Authorities launched an investigation and are liaising with both clubs, while Bradley Lowery, who died of neuroblastoma in 2017 aged six, is remembered through his foundation.
