A judge has declared a mistrial in the case of five former members of Canada's world junior ice hockey team accused of sexually assaulting a woman in a hotel.

Dillon Dube, Carter Hart, Michael McLeod, Cal Foote and Alex Formenton were charged with sexual assault last year for an incident that allegedly took place in 2018 in London, Ontario.

A mistrial has been declared in the sexual case against five former Team Canada junior hockey players, with a new trial to be held. The reasons for the mistrial cannot be reported.
