Federal authorities have closed a probe into an alleged hate crime in Wisconsin because of a lack of evidence to support the allegations.

“A federal investigation found insufficient evidence to pursue federal criminal civil rights charges for an alleged hate crime reported to have occurred on June 24, 2020, in Madison,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Wisconsin said in a joint Oct. 2 statement with the FBI and the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division.
