Rangers' Sterling Arrested After Car Crash in Glasgow

Glasgow, Scotland – Rangers defender Dujon Sterling was arrested and charged with road traffic offences early Sunday morning after crashing his car in the city, just hours after his team's 3-1 victory over rivals Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.

The incident occurred around 1:25 a.m. on January 4, 2026, on West Graham Street in Glasgow's Cowcaddens area. Police Scotland responded to reports of a one-vehicle crash, where Sterling, 26, was the driver. No injuries were reported, and no other vehicles were involved. The car struck pavement barriers and railings on a bridge over the M8 motorway, leaving it severely damaged with deployed airbags, a detached bonnet, and the rear suspended against a roadside barrier. Temporary barriers have since been installed to repair the damage.
