    "Newcastle midfielder Cheick Tiote has had his car seized by police, after he was arrested on suspicion of fraud in relation to driving offences.

    The 26-year-old Ivory Coast international was stopped near Newcastle's training ground on Tuesday afternoon by Northumbria Police officers.

    And Tiote's black and white Chevrolet Camaro, thought to be worth in the region of £75,000, was taken away on the back of a recovery lorry.

    A Northumbria Police spokesman said: "At about 1.30pm on 12 February, a car was stopped on Benton Park Road, Newcastle, and a 26-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of fraud in relation to driving offences."

    Police added that their inquiries are ongoing.

    Tiote, who has only just returned from the Africa Cup of Nations, joined Newcastle from Dutch side FC Twente in 2010 for a fee of £3.5m, and the defensive midfielder has made a big impression since arriving at St James' Park."

    Wouldn't like to be the one to arrest Cheick <yikes>

    Are handcuffs enough?

    What fraud would a multi-million pound footballer need to commit? I'd heard that he'd been arrested for speeding.

    I read somewhere that it could be due to insurance. I'll see if I can find that story again.

    The story has been taken down, but it seems the Insurance thing may relate to a previous one.

    Maybe he lied about his 'driving history' for his insurance?

    Tiote will be issuing an ultimatum - "Release me now or die".

    This is likely what it will be.

    I'd imagine the worst that will happen will be a fine and a driving ban
