UK police arrest man over Olympic tweets

None

Police say a man has been arrested in relation to malicious Twitter postings directed at British Olympic diver Tom Daley.

 

Daley's father died of brain cancer a year ago and the 18-year-old Olympian had hoped win a medal "for myself and my dad." But he finished fourth on Monday, out of medal contention, in the 10-meter synchronized platform with teammate Pete Waterfield. (Reuters)
