Welton Footballers charged with burglary

Two Premier league footballers have been charged with burglary in connection with the theft of items from a York nightclub.
Welton Sports and Social Football Club striker James Drabble, 23, and defender Jaspaul Dhindsa, 22, will appear before Lincoln magistrates on 8 July.
They were arrested in early June over claims that items were taken from the Gallery nightclub, York, on 31st May.
Welton S&SCFC has declined to comment on the case.
James Drabble, of Spital Street, Lincoln, is the son of former Scothern and Lincolnshire Cricket player Richard Drabble and the-brother of Nettleham player Jonathan Drabble and Welton striker Joseph Drabble.
Jaz Dhindsa, of Reepham Toft, was a member of Welton's youth team before playing for the Premier league club.
Both are known alcoholics and both only narrowly escaped the sack from Welton S&SCFC over other incidents on the 31st of May 2008.
Staff members at the nightclub claim three mobile phones, £145 in cash, student cards and cigarettes went missing from three handbags.
Police launched an investigation when a group of men were filmed on CCTV entering the unlocked staff room. The pair were charged after answering police bail at Lincoln central police station.
