Students at Chinook High School in Lethbridge said there was a sombre, uneasy feeling the day after police searched a football locker room for forensic evidence in connection to an alleged sexual assault.
In a news release Wednesday, the Lethbridge Police Service said the alleged incident involved a 16-year-old student and players on the football team. The alleged assault occurred in a school locker-room on Oct. 3, after school hours.
No arrests have been made and no charges have been laid at this time
However, many students are talking about the sexual assault allegations that have hit the school's football team. Some players on the team said they don't know what happened.
"Everybody's just in complete shock and the whole team doesn't know what to do,” said Jwan Ali, a Grade 11 student and member of the team.
Ali said he was in a different dressing room after school on Tuesday when police said a 16-year-old was assaulted in a locker room.
Team members said they feel shocked, hurt and left in the dark.
