LONDON (Reuters) - A man has been arrested over allegations of a hate crime against a player for the English soccer club, Manchester City, at the club's training ground, police said on Tuesday. Greater Manchester Police said a 29-year-old man was in custody on suspicion of racially aggravated assault and the incident, involving City forward Raheem Sterling, was being treated as a hate crime. "Racism will not be tolerated in Greater Manchester and has no place in civilised society," Detective Chief Inspector Paul Walker said in a statement. Sterling scored twice in City's 4-1 defeat of Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday evening. (Reporting by Martyn Herman; Editing by Richard Balmforth)
