When Sean Beasley honked at a driver who cut him off, he never expected what would unfold.

At the next red light Beasley said the other driver got out of his car and the pair got in a scuffle, with Beasley claiming he was struck and grabbed around the throat.

After making a complaint to police, Beasley discovered his alleged attacker was off-duty Sergeant Glen Morey and an internal investigation found there was insufficient evidence to press charges.

Morey denies Beasley's version of events.

Beasley filed a complaint with the WA Corruption and Crime Commission, which says there is sufficient evidence to charge him to test Beasley's claims.
