The Napa police have finished their investigation into allegations that Oakland Raiders coach Tom Cable assaulted one of his assistants and forwarded the case to county prosecutors.
Napa (Calif.) County District Attorney Gary Lieberstein on Monday said in a recorded message that his office is reviewing the report.
"We are taking this very seriously," Lieberstein said, adding that there is no timetable on when the review will be completed.
Lieberstein also said previous reports of "an imminent arrest" in the case did not originate from his office nor the Napa Police.
Police Commander Andy Lewis said police would have no comment on the specifics of the case.
Raiders defensive assistant Randy Hanson was hospitalized with a broken bone in his face following the Aug. 5 attack that he told police was initiated by a member of the Raiders coaching staff at the team's training camp hotel in Napa.
Hanson initially did not tell police who his assailant was. His attorney, John McGuinn, told NFL.com last week that Hanson told police that Cable was the coach who attacked him.
Cable denied the allegations in August and said Monday that he would not comment on the most recent reports, saying he'll let the legal process play out.
