Derbyshire Police are looking into "allegations of assault" following the incident that saw England fast bowler Brydon Carse handcuffed outside a nightclub over the weekend.
Carse was dropped from the squad for the second Test against Pakistan, which begins at Lord's on Thursday, after the Cricket Regulator initiated a probe into an episode that saw the Durham paceman arrested outside a late bar in Derby –- then de-arrested after agreeing to depart.
In an updated statement issued late Wednesday, Derbyshire Police said: "We are investigating allegations of assault in Derby city centre. No arrests have yet been made and the investigation is ongoing."
Further details are unknown, with no clarity over what part –- if any –- Carse had in the alleged assault, with the England and Wales Cricket Board yet to comment publicly on the latest developments.
An initial statement from the force, released after a video clip of Carse apparently being detained by officers in the street, had said: "A man in his 30s was arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly in Derby city centre on Saturday night. However the man was de-arrested shortly afterwards having agreed to leave the area."
Former England captain Ben Stokes and centrally contracted seamer Matthew Potts both appeared in the footage, captured in the aftermath of their Durham side's County Championship victory over Derbyshire, though there is no suggestion either was involved in anything untoward.
Stokes's successor as Test skipper, Joe Root, spoke angrily Tuesday about the latest in a growing list of alcohol-related incidents that have engulfed the England set-up.
Root, who abolished the midnight curfew that contributed to Stokes's exit following another controversial night out earlier this season, said: "If I'm being brutally honest I'm really hacked off.
"I've spoken to Brydon and when I first found out my first concern was him as a person. I don't think I'm speaking out of turn in saying he's very upset, very apologetic and understands his actions."

Root added: "But it's not the isolated incident itself, it's the fact we continuously keep making stupid mistakes away from the game and it's detracting from what we are doing on the field."
