PARIS (Reuters) - Paris St Germain defender Serge Aurier will be tried in September over a brush with police after the football player left a night club shortly before dawn on Monday, the public prosecutor's office said on Tuesday.

The 23-year-old Ivory Coast national, who was suspended for several weeks earlier this year for insulting PSG coach Laurent Blanc, was released after 24 hours in custody and told he would go on trial on Sept. 26 on charges of acting violently towards a public official.
