Prosecutors in the US have said they will take no further action over a claim against former US Vice-President, Al Gore.

They have said there is no evidence to back a woman's claims that she was assaulted by Mr Gore.

The woman, a masseuse, had alleged that Mr Gore had made unwanted advances to her during a massage appointment in 2006.

Police have now dropped the case after the woman sold her story to a tabloid newspaper and refused to sit a polygraph test.
