A man has been charged following an incident at the north London derby.
Jason Gannon, of Gargery Close, Gravesend, has been accused of throwing a missile onto the football pitch during Arsenal's 4-2 win at the Emirates stadium yesterday.
The 36-year-old was one of three people charged with the same offence, including 57-year-old Averof Panteli, from Norwich and Charlie Watts, 26, from St Albans.
All there have been bailed and will appear at Highbury Corner Court on Tuesday, December 18.
A fourth man, Paul Wright, 41, from Bexley was charged with a public order offence.
He was also bailed and will appear at the same court on Monday, December 31.
The arrests come after a banana skin was thrown onto the pitch at Gunner's striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, in an alleged racist incident.
Inquiries are still ongoing.
