LeSean McCoy will not face charges after an investigation into his alleged involvement in a Philadelphia bar fight, according to multiple reports. Ralph Cipriano of BigTrial.net first broke the news.

The Feb. 7 incident reportedly involved McCoy, acquaintances of the former Eagle and a group of off-duty policy officers, including two who were sent to the hospital. TMZ previously released video of the fight, which police confirmed is authentic.

In February, John McNesby, the head of the Philadelphia Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 5, called for charges against McCoy.

“I’ve never waited this long, ever, to see somebody arrested,” McNesby said on the 94 WIP morning show. “So, it doesn’t pass the smell test. Something’s funny going on. I know that they have more discovery on this case then they had in the O.J. Simpson case. I mean it’s taken up rooms. So I mean, how much more do you need? All you have to do is clearly look at that video.”
