Boxer Khan in court on dangerous driving charge
Boxer Amir Khan has been arrested and charged with dangerous driving.
Police in England said Khan, 19, was arrested on Saturday at a police station in his home town of Bolton.
His arrest followed an incident on Bradshawgate in the town when a man had his leg broken by a car.
A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: “On Thursday March 2 2006, police were called to Bradshawgate in Bolton at about 4.45pm following reports that a car was in collision with a pedestrian.
“The pedestrian was taken to the Royal Bolton Hospital suffering from a broken leg.
Khan appeared at Bolton Magistrates’ Court on Monday and was released on bail to reappear at a later date.
Khan, who won a silver medal at the 2004 Olympics, is due to fight Scot Colin Bain on July 8 at the Millennium Stadium, in Cardiff.
