Charges of attempted rape and assault have been dropped against Manchester United footballer Mason Greenwood.
The 21-year-old was arrested in January last year amid allegations surrounding images and videos that emerged online.
Greenwood was ousted when his ex-girlfriend posted on her InstaStories, showing signs of abuse on her body, along with a distressing audio of Greenwood threatening her.

He was later charged with attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
The Crown Prosecution Service said the charges were discontinued after key witnesses withdrew their involvement.
Greenwood has since disappeared from the public eye in the wake of the charges made against him.
