A woman is telling the sexual assault trial of five hockey players she was drunk and not fully aware of her surroundings as she navigated a “chaotic” dance floor at the bar where she first encountered some of the accused.

The woman, whose identity is protected by a publication ban, says she had at least eight shots, a beer and a vodka soda at Jack’s Bar in London, Ont., the night of June 18, 2018, as well as two coolers at home beforehand.
