No further action after Dennis police quiz

Dennis McHugh has been quizzed by police as expected today over the spitting incident which resulted in his removal from the house.

The 23-year-old dance teacher was questioned under caution, but no further action will be taken at this stage. He was not arrested and did not attend a police station.

McHugh was ejected from the house after appearing to spit in the face of fellow contestant Mohamed Mohamed in an alcohol-fuelled row. He has admitted making a spitting action but claimed that nothing came out of his mouth.

A Hertfordshire police spokeswoman said: "Officers have now spoken with a 23-year-old man from Edinburgh in connection with an alleged incident. He was spoken to under caution, and at this stage no further action has been taken.

"Officers will speak with the potential complainant as and when he leaves the house at some point in the future."
