Footage shows moment Conor McGregor was holding the hands of his victim after being accused of rape in the bathroom.
The letters demand McGregor, the Kaseya Center, the NBA and the Miami Heat organization preserve all video, photographs, and other potential evidence.
NBA spokesman Mike Bass gave CNN this statement Thursday: “We are aware of the allegations and are working with the team to gather more information.”
When reached by CNN, Miami police confirmed they are investigating a report that was filed on June 11.
“This is an open investigation so no additional information can be released at this time,” police spokesperson Michael Vega said in a statement.
McGregor has denied the allegations.
When asked about the allegations, Miami police told CNN they are investigating a report that was filed but did not provide further details.
McGregor is accused of several crimes, including the sexual assault and battery of the unidentified woman in a VIP men’s bathroom at the Kaseya Center where the game was held, the woman’s attorney writes in a letter to McGregor. The letter also claims McGregor kidnapped the woman and caused her emotional distress.
McGregor’s representatives told CNN in a statement: “The allegations are false. Mr. McGregor will not be intimidated.”
Conor McGregor has been accused of raping a woman at Game 4 of the NBA Finals last week.
The UFC fighter denies the allegations, TMZ has said. It was the same game on June 9 where he punched the Miami Heat mascot and they later needed hospital treatment.
TMZ says the allegations claim he ‘violently’ sexually assaulted a woman inside of a men’s bathroom at the Kaseya Center, where the Heat had played against Denver Nuggets.
The letters, which were authored by attorney Ariel Mitchell, claim that the incident took place during the same night in which McGregor participated in a skit in which he participated in an on-court skit with Miami Heat mascot, Burnie, which included throwing punches that apparently resulted in the person playing the character being hospitalized. McGregor is accused of “violently” sexually assaulting a woman inside the men’s bathroom at Kaseya Center at some point after the on-court incident took place.
