Patrick Kane not likely to face criminal charges in sexual assault case, per report

The investigation into allegations of sexual assault against Patrick Kane reportedly won't make it to a grand jury.

The investigation into allegations of sexual assault against Patrick Kane is unlikely to lead to criminal charges, report Tim Graham, Lou Michel and Dan Herbeck of The Buffalo News. Authorities have been investigating the case since a woman told police in early August that she was raped at Kane's offseason home in New York.

Now "it appears no criminal charges will be filed against the Chicago Blackhawks hockey star," according to the News.
