A 21-year-old woman told Lincoln police she was sexually assaulted while backstage at the Chris Brown concert at Pinnacle Bank Arena Monday night, officials said Wednesday.

Investigators have identified the suspect, but no one has been arrested as officers continue to look into the case, Officer Katie Flood said.

The woman reported the sexual assault at 11:39 p.m. and said it occurred between 10 p.m. and 11:30 p.m., Flood said.

Chief Jeff Bliemeister declined to provide further details about the sexual assault, the suspect or victim, saying such disclosures could compromise the ongoing investigation.

Brown, the concert's headliner, took the stage at 9:35 p.m. and performed for a crowd of about 6,000 until about 10:50 p.m.

Bliemeister said this is the first sexual assault reported at the arena, which opened in 2013.
