Birmingham City's Marvin Ducksch Charged With DUI After Three-Car Crash

A May 20 hearing in Warwickshire will test the club’s pledge to manage the case internally.

Overview

  • Warwickshire Police arrested the 32-year-old forward at a late-night three-car collision near Birmingham City’s area and released him on bail.
  • Authorities confirmed a charge of driving under the influence and set a magistrates’ court appearance in Leamington Spa for May 20.
  • Birmingham City said Ducksch apologized to teammates, staff and supporters and stated he takes full responsibility for his actions.
  • Manager Chris Davies omitted Ducksch from the squad against Wrexham and called the issue his decision and an internal matter.
  • The case could affect his selection going forward, given his 10 goals in 32 games this season and a contract that runs until 2028.
