LONDON - Police have begun an investigation into allegations that Chelsea and England captain John Terry taunted an opponent with a racial slur.
Terry is accused of directing the slur at Queens Park Rangers defender Anton Ferdinand during Chelsea's 1-0 Premier League loss Oct. 23.
The Metropolitan Police said Tuesday "this is currently being investigated" after previously saying the case was under assessment.
Terry has said his comments were taken out of context, and denies allegations of racial abuse.
