He was arrested, originally for attempted murder, in August outside a McDonald's in Kentish Town.

The Crown Prosecution Service ruled that Tittensor had acted in self-defence and he was not prosecuted in connection with Mr Flint's injuries. The actor, who plays Carl Gallagher in the Channel 4 series, gave himself up to police a little over an hour after the incident.

Tittensor has a previous conviction for driving with a mobile phone.

It is not clear to me why he wasn’t prosecuted for leaving the scene of a collision.
