Keane faces court date over road rage claims
Keane, 43, must go before Trafford Magistrates’ Court after police received a report he had behaved aggressively in the incident in January.
It is alleged that the Cork man got into the row with Fateh Kerar, 44, near traffic lights on Ashley Rd, Altrincham, on January 30.
In a statement, Greater Manchester Police said: “A summons was posted for Roy Keane to his home address in Hale to appear before Trafford Magistrates’ Court on March 31 for a section 4A public order offence.”
Mr Kerar, from Altrincham, has claimed the alleged row was triggered when he and his passenger noticed Keane parked in his Range Rover near his home in Hale, Cheshire.
The public order offence for which Keane has been summonsed is for types of conduct which may at least be capable of amounting to threatening, abusive, or insulting words or behaviour.
After a trophy-laden career for Manchester United, as well as spells at Nottingham Forest and Celtic, Keane has managed Premier League side Sunderland and Championship side Ipswich.
He gave up his job as assistant manager of Aston Villa late last year to concentrate on his role with the Irish team.
