Colin Kaepernick addresses alleged ‘sexual assault’

San Francisco 49ers v Arizona Cardinals

As we reported yesterday, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick is under close scrutiny following an alleged “suspicious incident” involving himself, an anonymous young woman and two other NFL players.


The 26-year-old star athlete is under investigation along with his teammate Quinton Patton and former San Francisco 49er and current Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Ricardo Lockette, after a Miami woman claims that she woke up in a hospital bed after a night of smoking weed and drinking with the three athletes.


While no charges have been filed, TMZ reports that the investigation could possibly escalate to a sexual assault charge.

“A rape kit was administered on the woman at the heart of the Colin Kaepernick investigation, a Miami Police Department official says.


“Cops were summoned to the hospital where the woman wound up after allegedly hanging out with Colin and two other NFL players at an apartment at the Viceroy Hotel in Miami on April 1.

“Cops spoke with the woman at the hospital and a rape kit was administered.”

While everyone awaits the results of the rape kit, Kaepernick used Twitter to shut down the rumors and thank fans who have given him the benefit of the doubt.

Again, no results have been released from the rape kit and no charges have been filed. We will keep you posted as the story develops … –ruthie hawkins/@ruubabie
