West Brom suspends Bednar over drugs story
WEST BROMWICH, England (AP) — West Bromwich Albion has suspended striker Roman Bednar over newspaper allegations that he bought cocaine and cannabis from a drug dealer.
A report in the tabloid News of the World shows pictures of the Czech international forward allegedly handing over money to a man the paper said was a drugs dealer. The incident came hours after Bednar was an unused substitute in Albion's 3-1 victory over Wigan in the Premier League on May 9, the paper said.
The club said Sunday: "Roman Bednar has been suspended while the club conduct an internal investigation to the matter."
