Guoan to discipline Scottish defender

Maurice Ross, a player with the Beijing Guoan Football Club, is facing punishment from his team after a physical altercation with a motorist earlier this week in Sanlitun, according to reports.

Guoan officials refused to respond to the incident, and would not talk about possible repercussions for the Scottish right defender, after METRO met the team's request for a faxed list of questions.

Ross was apparently walking with his girlfriend near Sanlitun Bar Street about 10:30 pm on Monday, when a Cadillac suddenly stopped in traffic to their right.
