Australia hockey player Tom Craig has apologised after being released from custody in Paris following his arrest for allegedly buying cocaine, reports BBC News.
The Paris prosecutor's office said an individual was arrested on Tuesday night for buying cocaine in the ninth arrondissement.
Craig was released with a warning and did not receive a fine.
"I'd firstly like to apologise for what has occurred in the last 24 hours. I made a terrible mistake. I take full responsibility for my actions," Craig said as he left police offices.
"My actions are my own and in no way, reflect the values of my family, my team-mates, my friends, my sport, and the Australian Olympic team. I've embarrassed you all. I'm truly sorry."
Craig, 28, won silver at the Tokyo 2020 Games and has made over 100 appearances for Australia.
