While with Dodgers, Gabe Kapler reportedly failed to alert police of assault on underage girl

According to a report published this evening, Phillies manager Gabe Kapler allegedly failed to report to authorities an incident involving a pair of minor league prospects in which an underage girl was assaulted while Kapler was with the Los Angeles Dodgers in February 2015.

The piece by Will Hobson, Christian Red and Teri Thompson with contributions by Julie Tate for The Washington Post states that Kapler was informed of the situation by both the 17-year-old female victim and the girl’s grandmother.

Kapler was the director of player development for the Dodgers at the time.
