Ian Brown was arrested in west London

Former Stone Roses frontman Ian Brown has been arrested on suspicion of assaulting his wife, Fabiola Quiroz.

The 46-year-old was arrested in west London and taken to a police station before being released on bail.

Brown married the Mexican model and actress, 37, around 10 years ago and the couple have a nine-year-old son named Emilio.

A statement from Scotland Yard said police were called to reports of a disturbance at a residential address shortly after 8am yesterday morning.

It continued: "On arrival, a 37-year-old woman made an allegation of domestic assault. A 46-year-old man was arrested at the address."

The musician was bailed to return next month.
