Cabrera probed for allegedly striking ex

Former US Open and Masters champion Angel Cabrera is being investigated for allegedly causing "minor injuries" to his ex-partner.

A spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office in Cordoba in western Argentina told The Associated Press on Thursday Cabrera had been interviewed and released. He was not expected to offer more testimony, the office said.

The ex-partner Cecilia Torres Mana accused Cabrera of striking her, threatening her, and then attempting to run her down with a van.

The events allegedly took place on December 21 in the city of Villa Allende in the western province of Cordoba, where both reside.

The prosecutor's office said the case was still under investigation.
