At Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, vandals cause “£100,000 damage”; one individual is taken into custody.
One person has been placed under custody in relation to an incident that occurred on Monday evening, according to the North London club.
The club from north London has announced that an individual has been placed under arrest for allegedly causing “criminal damage” to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier today.
The stadium, which made its debut in 2019, was attacked on Monday night, potentially resulting in damages exceeding six figures.
In a statement issued on Saturday, Spurs stated, “We can confirm that an individual was arrested for criminal damage following an incident that took place on Monday night.”
Tottenham, despite the club’s longstanding ties to the Jewish community, stated that there was evidence linking the vandalism to anti-Semitism.
“There is no indication that this incident is linked to anti-Semitism,” they said.
The next event to take place at the ground is an NFL game on Sunday between the Tennessee Titans and the Baltimore Ravens.

At a cost of £1.2 billion, the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was constructed with a capacity of 62,850.
The original White Hart Lane, which was demolished at the conclusion of the 2016–17 season, was the location of its 2019 opening.
