A 43-year-old man has been charged in connection with allegedly sending a racist comment online towards former Kilmarnock manager Alex Dyer.
The message was posted on January 31 – a day after Dyer parted company with the Scottish Premiership side.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: “A 43-year-old man has been charged in connection with offensive communications posted online. A report has been submitted to the procurator fiscal.”
Kilmarnock say fans reported the message to the police and it was the second time in a month that 55-year-old Dyer had been the subject of racist abuse.
Dyer received a letter containing racist abuse at the club’s Rugby Park home at the end of December.
