David Moyes to be quizzed by police over 'wine bar assault'May 22, 2014 14:25 By Paul Byrne
The ousted Man United boss was eating with friends when the incident occurred 
Cops are set to speak to ousted Manchester United boss David Moyes after a man claimed he was assaulted in a wine bar. Moyes, 51, was
having a meal with a friend from his days at Preston North End in an upmarket bar in Clitheroe, Lancs when the incident occurred. Police stressed that there are different accounts of what happened and that they are trying to establish what exactly what took place in the bar.
The well known bar - The Emporium - above an antiques shop in the centre of the town is only a short drive from his home.
The
23-year-old has claimed to police he was struck by a man around the back of the head and fell to the floor injuring his shoulder. Lancashire Police said: “Police are investigating a report of an assault at the Emporium wine bar in Clitheroe.
“Officers attended the bar at about 10pm yesterday (Wednesday, May 21st) and
it was reported that a 23 year old local man had been assaulted by a 51 year old man. He did not require hospital treatment. “Inquiries are ongoing and we are speaking to a number of people to try to establish the circumstances.
“There are a number of differing accounts which
we need to work through to try to establish exactly what has happened. No-one has been arrested at this stage.” The man who made the allegations, who also lives locally, told friends he was interviewed by officers at the scene.
One regular at the bar, which is covered by CCTV, said: “It is the very last place you would expect to find any trouble.
“It is very upmarket and not the sort of bar where people go to look for, or find, any sort of aggravation.”
Friends of the man who made the allegations said he did go to hospital and received treatment at Blackburn Royal Infirmary.
Moyes has kept a low profile since he was sacked from Old Trafford at the end of last season.
Today rumours were linking him to the vacant manager’s chair at Celtic and an immediate return to Champions League football.
