Hoy’s report could prompt the FA to take further action<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Reports that a laser pen was aimed at referee Chris Foy and Manchester City players during Chelsea’s 2-0 win on Sunday are being investigated.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Football Association says it is awaiting Foy’s match report to see if he refers to any such incidents. <\/p>\n

It has also requested information from Chelsea, including any relevant CCTV footage of the match and supporters. <\/p>\n

Chelsea themselves say they are aware of the reports and are also looking into the claims. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Incidents of fans aiming laser pens at players and match officials have increased in recent years. <\/p>\n

In January 2010, Linfield manager David Jeffrey had one shone in his face during the Belfast derby against Glentoran at The Oval. <\/p>\n

A month later, Leeds United claimed their players were targeted with one during a penalty shoot-out in the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy tie against Carlisle at Brunton Park. <\/p>\n

In March 2008, Uefa fined Lyon \u00a32,520 after then-Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo was targeted with a laser pen during a Champions League.<\/p>\n
