Michael Le Vell rebailed in abuse probe

Coronation Street actor Michael Le Vell, who plays Kevin Webster,  has been rebailed over allegations that he sexually abused a schoolgirl.

The actor  was arrested in September on suspicion of committing a historic sexual offence. Le Vell, 46, from Hale, Cheshire, was later released on bail until tomorrow (Wednesday) pending further inquiries but has now been rebailed as the investigations continue.

A spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police said: "A 46-year-old man arrested on suspicion of committing a historic sexual offence has been rebailed until the second week of January as police continue their investigations."
Last month, the actor issued a statement which said: "I strenuously deny these allegations and will do everything in my power to prove my innocence."
