He had initially travelled with the squad for the first Test at Headingley.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"5\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"7\"\/>Carse had been arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly following a night out with his Durham teammates after their County Championship victory over Derbyshire. <!-- -->Durham won the Division Two clash by 338 runs as they strengthened their promotion push, which they have since successfully completed.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"12\"\/>The following day, pictures emerged on social media showing Carse in handcuffs and surrounded by police officers outside Molly Malone&#8217;s bar in Derby. Derbyshire Police confirmed at the time that a man in his 30s had been detained, although he was released from arrest shortly afterwards.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>The situation later took a separate turn when police announced that they were investigating an alleged assault in Derby city centre. Carse was never arrested in relation to that allegation.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>&#8220;We are investigating allegations of an assault in Derby city centre,&#8221; Derbyshire Police said in a subsequent statement. &#8220;No arrests have yet been made and the investigation is ongoing.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>That investigation has now been discontinued, meaning Carse will face no charge over the alleged assault.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"22\"\/>The distinction between the two incidents is significant. Carse was initially arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly before being de-arrested, while he was not arrested over the separate assault allegation that police subsequently investigated.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>The incident nevertheless came at a costly time for Carse&#8217;s England career. He had been part of the squad for the opening Test against Pakistan as a non-playing member before being released to join Durham. <!-- -->Following the emergence of the incident and the subsequent police investigation, he was removed from England&#8217;s squad for the rest of the series.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/>England went on to complete a 3-0 series sweep without Carse, while the fast bowler remained outside the Test set-up as the police inquiry continued.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"31\"\/>Carse has become an increasingly important part of England&#8217;s plans with his pace, aggression and ability to generate bounce, making his absence particularly significant. With the police investigation now closed without charges, the uncertainty surrounding the legal aspect of the episode has been resolved.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"33\"\/>Any decision on Carse&#8217;s return to England duty will now be down to the selectors and team management.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a
