Kings assistant coach Mark Hardy has been arrested and charged with sexual assault according to a report by the New York Daily News. In a sick twist, the young woman that Hardy allegedly assaulted was one of his relatives.
Hardy, 51, was arrested at the famed Mayflower Hotel, steps from the White House. Metropolitan Police Dept. spokeswoman Gwendolyn Crump said police were called to the Connecticut Ave. hotel just after 1 a.m.
Multiple news outlets reported the complainant was a female relative of Hardy’s. Hardy made an initial appearance in D.C. Superior Court late yesterday.
Authorities initially had charged him with misdemeanor sexual assault but prosecutors in Washington later discussed plans to raise the charge to a felony.
