Parramatta five-eighth Dylan Brown has been charged with five counts of sexual touching without consent after an alleged incident at a hotel in Sydney’s eastern suburbs on Saturday night.
It’s understood police were called when a 20-year-old woman reported the alleged incident to staff at the Golden Sheaf pub.
NSW Police confirmed that Brown is due to answer the charges at the Downing Centre Local Court this week.
“About 11.40pm yesterday officers attached to Eastern Suburbs PAC were called to a hotel on South Head Rd at Double Bay following a report of sexual touching,” a police statement read.
“Police arrested a 22-year-old man. He was taken to Waverley Police Station where he has been charged with sexually touch another person without consent.
“He was granted bail to appear before Downing Centre Local Court on Wednesday, June 7.”
The Eels had the bye this weekend and play the Bulldogs next Monday afternoon.
“The Parramatta Eels have been made aware of an incident involving Dylan Brown last night,” Parramatta said in a statement.
“The club has advised the NRL integrity unit as per our normal process. As it is a police matter, the club will not be making further comment at this time”.
