A disturbing video has surfaced online showing an LSU fan apparently being sexually assaulted by an Alabama fan, reportedly after the BCS Championship game.

In the video, an Alabama fan can be seen exposing his genitals and rubbing them on an unconscious LSU fan. The incident happened inside a fast-food restaurant on Bourbon Street in New Orleans.

The New Orleans Police Department's sex crimes unit did review the video and says they are categorizing the incident as a sexual assault, however, officers say a victim has yet to come forward. If identified, the individual who committed the alleged assault could face sexual battery charges.

The University of Alabama released the following statement:

"UA hopes that our fans will act with class and dignity and we are disappointed when they don't. We are aware of the video, we will check into it and we will appropriately deal with any student who might have been involved."

If anyone can identify those in the video, contact the New Orleans Police Department.
