An Arsenal fan has been arrested for shining a laser in the face of Chelsea star Mykhailo Mudryk during Tuesday’s London derby at Emirates Stadium.

Mudryk was constantly being targeted by a green laser pen while he was on the pitch, with the player later taking to social media to say that he was “okay”.

Arsenal have now released a statement following the incident, confirming a supporter was arrested after the game and labelling the incident as “dangerous and totally unacceptable”.

“An arrest has been made following the use of a laser during last night’s match,” the club statement read. 

“This behaviour is dangerous and totally unacceptable. We will fully support the police with their enquiries and take action as appropriate.”
