Chicago police say they can't find Kang's alleged sexual assault victim

Chicago police said today that they still have questions for the alleged sexual assault victim of Pirates infielder Jung Ho Kang, but they have been unable to contact her despite numerous attempts.

Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said authorities “are seeking clarification on several items to corroborate the allegations made” by a 23-year-old woman against the baseball player.

Police said the woman met Mr. Kang through an online dating application for a smart phone. The two agreed to meet about 10 p.m. June 17 at the Westin Hotel on North Michigan Avenue while the Pirates were in Chicago for a series against the Cubs.
