Prosecutor: 3 Michigan State football players to face sex assault charges

EAST LANSING – Three Michigan State football players will face sexual assault charges in connection with a January on-campus incident involving a female student, officials said.

The decision was announced in a release from Ingham County Prosecuting Attorney Carol Siemon's office late Monday, which said charges have been authorized.

The authorization means police can now obtain arrest warrants from a judge or magistrate. A clerk in 54B District Court in East Lansing said that will not happen Monday.
