‘Tough few years’: NSW Police probed after NRL star’s violent arrest

Fox League

Police are investigating the conduct of officers involved in a violent confrontation with NRL star Tom Starling on the NSW Central Coast.

The 25-year-old Canberra Raiders hooker was cleared of any wrongdoing at court earlier this year, more than two years after the bar brawl.

The court was told Starling and brothers Jackson, 26, and Josh, 21, were attending a 21st birthday party at Shady Palms hotel when the fight broke out.



CCTV footage played to the court showed Tom being punched repeatedly in the face by an officer as he stumbled backward from the force of the blows.
