Hamburg Police Chief Gregory Wickett confirmed Friday morning that the department is investigating an alleged incident that occurred at the home of Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane last weekend.
"At this time, we are gathering information and awaiting forensic testing results," Wickett said in a brief statement. "We will have no further comment on this investigation at this time."
Wickett did not take questions from the media, and did not offer a time frame for an update on the situation.
The Buffalo News reported Thursday that Kane was the subject of an ongoing investigation. No charges have been filed against Kane.
UPDATE: Per tweets from Buffalo News reporter Tim Graham, Kane will no longer visit sick children in a Buffalo hospital as part of his day with the Stanley Cup. Graham also tweeted that Kane will still have his day with the Cup on Saturday (8/8, in honor of his jersey number) but it will be held in private.
UPDATE: Blackhawks owner Rocky Wirtz spent his day with the Stanley Cup in Winnetka on Sunday, and provided a brief comment to the Chicago Tribune on the investigation involving Kane: "We're disappointed but hopeful. Beyond that, it would not be appropriate to expound upon."
