PROVO, Utah — KSL TV has obtained a police report from the incident at BYU in which a Duke University volleyball player says someone in the student section repeatedly yelled racial slurs at her.

In that document, a BYU police officer said he reviewed video surveillance of the game and does not see evidence that the fan who was banned by BYU that night was the person making the derogatory comments.
