Victoria Police has dropped its investigation into Richmond's Dustin Martin threatening of a woman with a chopstick.

A spokeswoman said police would not take any action after the woman decided not to make a statement.

The Tigers star, who was reportedly intoxicated after spending the day at Stereosonic music festival, was dining at Windsor restaurant Mr Miyagi earlier this month when he allegedly became angry after the 30-year-old Sydney woman told him to calm down.

She claimed Martin raised the chopsticks above her eye and threatened to stab her before he slammed his palm against a wall above her head.


"He reacted extremely angrily; very very agitated, began swearing at me, standing over me physically. It was extremely intimidating," the woman, identified as "Tracey", told Channel Seven.

A Victoria Police statement said: "Detectives from Stonnington Criminal Investigation Unit have conducted an extensive investigation after reports a woman was threatened by a man at a Chapel Street restaurant in Windsor on 5 December.

"After reviewing CCTV footage and speaking to all parties involved, including numerous independent witnesses at the restaurant on the night, investigators determined that no criminal offence took place.

"Police take all reports of violence towards women seriously and investigate all complaints thoroughly."

Victoria Police took over the investigation four days after the alleged incident took place at the Japanese restaurant.

The AFL came under fire for not initially reporting it to police.

Martin later apologised to the woman.

He said in a statement released by the club late on Monday afternoon: "Regrettably, I was intoxicated and that, in itself, is completely unacceptable.

"I do, however, take responsibility for my behaviour and I am deeply embarrassed.

"If anything I have said or done has caused anyone to feel threatened, then that is totally inappropriate."

Attempts have been made to contact the Richmond Football Club for comment.
