LAKE COUNTY – The Lake County Sheriff's Office on Friday said several subjects it had sought to identify and question in relation to an assault in late June have been interviewed and cleared.

On July 8, the sheriff's office had issued a request for information from the community about the identities of several subjects pictured in a surveillance tape taken at Richmond Park Resort.

Officials believed that the men might have been responsible for the beating of a 23-year-old man at Konocti Harbor Resort and Spa in the early morning hours of June 22, as Lake County News has reported.

A statement from Chief Deputy James Bauman on Friday thanked the public for its assistance in the case.

“The public's response to our request for help in identifying the subjects has been overwhelming,” Bauman said in the written statement.

Through the community's numerous responses, all the subjects pictured in the footage were identified, questioned and subsequently cleared of any suspected involvement in the assault, according to Bauman.

Bauman thanked those who assisted with the investigation by responding to Det. Corey Paulich with information. He said no further responses to the surveillance tape are necessary.

Investigation into the assault is continuing, Bauman said.
