Dolores O'Riordan has been summonsed to appear before Ennis District Court next Wednesday following an incident last November at Shannon Airport where the singer was disembarking a transatlantic flight from New York.
The 43-year-old faces prosecution for the alleged Section 2 minor assault of two airport police officers and a Garda. Anyone found guilty of these charges is liable to a fine of up to €1,850 or a maximum of six months in prison.
Shortly after the alleged assault, it was revealed that Dolores had been distressed following the break-up of her marriage to husband Don Burton.
With the Cranberries seemingly on permanent 'hold', Dolores has been making music in NYC with former Smiths bassist Andy Rourke and DJ Ole Koretsky.
