LONDON, April 2 (Xinhua) -- Police in the region of Northumbria (Northeast England) have confirmed they are investigating an incident which appears to involve Everton and England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford on Sunday night.

The police have issued a statement which confirms that "at 12:19 a.m. Monday April 1, police received a report of a disturbance involving a large group of individuals on Tunstall Road, Sunderland."
"Enquiries are ongoing to determine the circumstances surrounding the incident and locate those involved. Nobody is believed to have been seriously injured and no arrests have been made," concludes the statement.
