Police are to take no further action over Danny Baker's racist royal baby tweet that got him fired by the BBC.
The DJ was sacked from BBC Radio 5 Live last week for posting a joke which showed a well-dressed couple in a black and white image with a chimp dressed in a suit and bowler hat.
He posted “Royal Baby leaves hospital”.
The tweet sparked outrage online.
And it was reported to The Met, who said specialist officers would look at the complaint.
But today a spokesman for the force said: "An allegation was received by the Metropolitan Police Service on Thursday, 9 May in relation to a Tweet published on 8 May.
"Having reviewed the comments made, we do not consider that a criminal threshold has been met and as such we will be taking no further action."

Baker, 61, called the incident “one of the worst days of my life” and admitted the tweet could be seen as “racism at its basest”.
He said he knew a royal baby was due but not that if was mixed-race Meghan's.
He said: “I chose the wrong photo for a joke. Disastrously so. I am so, so sorry.”
He presented a Saturday morning show on the network but was sacked from the job on Thursday.
The corporation said Baker's tweet "goes against the values we as a station aim to embody".

It added: "Danny's a brilliant broadcaster but will no longer be presenting a weekly show with us."
Baker apologised several times on Twitter and in person.
He has not tweeted since Friday but got a standing ovation when he performed his first live show since the tweet in Nottingham on Sunday.
He addressed "the elephant in the room" at the start, describing his tweet about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's baby as "revolting" and "misjudged".
However, he again denied being racist.
The show at Nottingham's Theatre Royal ended with a standing ovation and Baker describing it as "one of the greatest nights of my career".
