Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette is being investigated along with San Francisco 49ers teammates Colin Kaepernick and Quinton Patton regarding an alleged sexual assault in Miami earlier this month, according to TMZ Sports.

TMZ Sports reported that they obtained a police report from Miami PD, which included details of a “suspicious incident” involving the three players and a woman whom they had drinks with on April 1.

Here is more from TMZ:

"The woman told police, around 9pm that night she mixed some drinks for the guys and gave them shots, but they told her that “in order to drink the shots she had to ‘hit’ the bong which contained marijuana.”The woman says she felt lightheaded and went to the bedroom to lie down.  She claims Kaepernick “came up behind her into the bedroom and started kissing her.”"

Lockette is allegedly involved because after Kaepernick left the room, Lockette and Patton “peeked” inside the room to see the naked woman.

According to the report, the woman later woke up in a hospital bed with no recollection as to how she got there.

TMZ Sports reported the events as an investigation that centered around sexual assault, but the original incident report does not have specific allegations in it.

“We are aware of the situation, monitoring it closely and will not have any further comment at this time,” a Seahawks spokesman said Thursday afternoon.

None of the three players have been charged at this time, as the investigation is still in the “beginning stages.”

Lockette was drafted by the Seahawks in 2011.

He recorded five catches for 82 yards last season.
