"Since these incidents were originally reported to the Police Department, detectives have conducted interviews with the involved parties," read a statement posted on Facebook by the Coeur d’Alene, Idaho Police Department. "Additionally, detectives have collected approximately 35 hours of video from businesses in the area where the incidents occurred. Not all of the video recordings had associated audio. Detectives are analyzing all of the video/audio to gain accurate suspect information and to establish a timeframe and continuity from the various video perspectives.

"Some of the surveillance video/audio corroborates what was reported by members of the basketball program and detectives are currently working to locate any additional evidence.

"We’ve identified an audio recording where the use of a racial slur was clearly audible. We’re working to determine the context and conduct associated with its use to determine if is a violation of the law. While we’re still reviewing evidence, it appears the use of a racial slur occurred more than one time."
