DARTS World Cup star Kim Huybrechts has been fined and received a warning for threatening behaviour towards his Belgium team-mate.
Two complaints were launched against Huybrechts by his team-mates Mike De Decker and Dimitri van den Bergh.

PAHuybrechts is alleged to have slapped De Decker across his face following a match in Barnsley in November.
He had to be restrained as he threatened De Decker saying: “I will destroy you!
“I swear, this has been on my mind for a long time. You are the first on my list. And your mother too.”
Prior to that incident tensions were high at the World Cup of Darts as team-mates Huybrechts and Van Den Bergh did not even look at each other.
It is believed that is because of another threat Huybrechts made to De Decker.
He is alleged to have said: “Mike, who knows you might still throw the World Cup this year. You never know when someone falls down the stairs.”
The Darts Regulation Authority investigated the complaints and has found Huybrechts guilty with the 38-year-old handed a £1,500 fine.
He has also received a formal warning so reportedly faces a suspension if another incident occurs.
