The Minneapolis Police Department is investigating a criminal sexual conduct case, and a department spokesman said Saturday officers are investigating the possible involvement of four Gophers football players.

The case was reported Sept. 3, and the victim was a 22-year-old female.

“The victim reported being sexually assaulted,” the police report said. “Victim sought medical attention prior to making report.”

Gophers coach Tracy Claeys suspended four players for Saturday’s 58-28 win over Indiana State at TCF Bank Stadium: cornerbacks KiAnte Hardin and Ray Buford, safety Dior Johnson and defensive end Tamarion Johnson.

“We are working to determine how they are involved in the case at this time,” Minneapolis officer Corey Schmidt said in a statement provided to the Pioneer Press on Sunday.
