Samoa star to be sentenced for assault

NEWS: Clermont’s Samoan back row forward Fritz Lee will be sentenced for aggravated assault next year, the public prosecutor’s office in the French town announced on Wednesday.

Lee, 36, admitted to causing injuries to a waitress in October, which left her unable to work for 30 days, after a French Top 14 victory.

The victim suffered a broken wrist in the incident.

Lee played an hour in Clermont’s Top 14 win over Castres last Saturday having made his most recent Test appearance at last year’s World Cup.
