West Coast forward Tyler Brockman has reportedly been charged by police following a recent driving incident in Western Australia.
The Eagles confirmed earlier this month that Brockman was assisting police following an incident involving the young Eagle and no other vehicle in Geraldton.
The club revealed at the time that the 21-year-old was not injured from the accident.
Now, according toย 7 News Perthย reporter Ryn Daniels, Brockman has been charged with the alleged offences of Careless Driving, Failing to Report an Incident in Which Property was Damaged, and Failing to Stop.
It is alleged that Brockman fled from the scene of the traffic accident, where a car collided with a light post, before returning later.
Brockman is now expected to face court in July.
