Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Carter Hart has been named as one of the five players called to surrender to police in London, Ont., to be charged with sexual assault in connection with the alleged incident that happened during a Hockey Canada event in June 2018, according to TSN’s Rick Westhead.

Hart is expected to be in London and surrender to police before London Police hold a scheduled press conference on Monday. The press conference was planned to update the public of any conclusion of their investigation and the case itself.

The other four players are Calgary Flames forward Dillon Dube, New Jersey Devils skaters Michael McLeod and Cal Foote, and former Ottawa Senator who was most recently playing in the Swiss League, forward Alex Formenton.
