The Police Commissioner has confirmed authorities have reached out to a stripper who made sexual assault claims against the Chiefs in an interview earlier in the week.
The stripper, known as Scarlette, told Story that she was touched in her private parts without giving consent at an end-of-season event for the Super Rugby club.
Commissioner Mike Bush confirmed police are wanting to talk to her about the incident on Duncan Garner's RadioLIVE Drive show.
Scarlette claims she was constantly heckled and had to resort to her martial arts training to prevent a player grabbing her genitalia.
She said she was paid $320 for stripping and waitressing, but was offered a further $100 to continue dancing for "another couple of songs".
However, the team allegedly started pressuring her to let them do things to her, and after a while she agreed to let one player "lick a b***hole for $50" - but she says about four others also did so without her consent.
Contact with Scarlette comes after she told Story she was reluctant to get police involved, due to bad past experiences and the hefty emotional toll it can take.
"I don't want to put myself through that - but when you think about it, yes, it is wrong," she told Story.
"It is a crime what they did."
