Paul Gascoigne has reportedly been arrested for being drunk and disorderly.
According to PA, a police spokeswoman said that the ex-footballer was taken into custody in the early hours of this morning following a disturbance in Newcastle.
It is believed that Gascoigne was arrested in the Jesmond area of the city at 2.15am and later received a fixed penalty notice at a police station.
The police representative would not confirm how much the notice was for, but it is believed that fines for disorderly behaviour usually range between £50 and £80.
Former England player Gascoigne has allegedly struggled with an alcohol problem in recent years, causing him to check into rehab on more than one occasion.
