Evans arrested after Man Utd party rape claim
Manchester United defender Jonny Evans was being questioned today over the alleged rape of a woman at the club's Christmas party, sources said.
The 19-year-old was arrested yesterday following the party at the Great John Street Hotel in Manchester.
Greater Manchester Police were called to the hotel at 4.15am yesterday following reports that a 26-year-old woman had been raped.
A police spokeswoman said a man was arrested on suspicion of rape yesterday evening after presenting himself for questioning.
A Manchester United spokeswoman declined to comment.
Evans is a rising star at Manchester United, making three appearances this season.
The defender spent last season on loan at Sunderland. He has played for Northern Ireland eight times but has not got a regular place in Manchester United's first team.
The Great John Street Hotel is a boutique 'town house' hotel converted from a Victorian schoolhouse in the trendy Castlefield area of Manchester.
The Manchester Evening News reported that the entire Manchester United first team - excluding Cristiano Ronaldo - attended the club's annual Christmas party.
The players were reportedly entertained by burlesque dancers during their meal at the Manchester 235 Casino.
They were also reported to have had a drink at the Old Grapes, a pub owned by former Coronation Street actress Liz Dawn.
This morning, the Manchester United players arrived as normal at their Carrington training ground shortly after 9am. Evans was not among them.

Manchester United starlet Evans denies rape claim at 'wild' Christmas party
Evans bailed after woman's boyfriend calls in police
Team-mates are said to be stunned over the arrest of 19-year-old Jonny Evans, has been released on bail. The Northern Ireland international presented himself to police after a 26-year-old woman claimed she had been raped in the early hours of yesterday.
Evans spent last night in custody and was today quizzed by officers over the alleged attack. He is said to strongly deny any wrongdoing and has been bailed until February 23 pending further inquiries.
The alleged victim, who gave police a brief statement following her claim, was also due to be interviewed fully today. She dialled 999 from a hotel where players including Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand took part in a late-night drinking session.

Rio Ferdinand felt the force of Sir Alex Ferguson's fury yesterday for organising the Christmas party. The United manager let rip at Ferdinand for organising Monday's drink-fuelled bash which cost the players £5,000 each and ended with defender Jonny Evans being quizzed after a 26-year-old woman claimed she was raped. Ferguson had warned his senior players that the party should not damage the club's name and Ferdinand and his team-mates were confronted by the furious boss when they turned up for training.
The exclusive party in Manchester, which included a visit to a casino and a pub before finishing at a hotel in the early hours, was more than enough to trigger Fergie's famous hairdryer blast. Ferdinand, 29, had to shoulder much of the responsibility because he organised the event and collected the whip-round at £5,000 per player.
Evans, who strongly protests his innocence, has yet to speak to Ferguson since his stay in a police cell on Tuesday. Evans, 19, who may not report for training today, spent the final four months of last season helping Sunderland gain promotion. That loan spell earned the defender his first full cap for Northern Ireland, but his inability to make a breakthrough at United has led to suggestions that he could join Roy Keane's team permanently.
Evans, who is not a party animal and is desperate to stay at United, is said to be on tenterhooks about how Ferguson will react and hopes his boss will be a sympathetic father figure rather than punish him if he allowed himself to be in any way compromised in a way that reflects poorly on the club, two years after Cristiano Ronaldo was falsely accused of rape.
Evans was in Monaco, where he had travelled with his father on an earlymorning flight to look at property, when he was told of the allegations. Evans had left the party with his brother and friends before catching a 7am plane. He flew straight back and reported to a police station. Evans, who was released on police bail, faced further questioning yesterday, as did his accuser. -
