Washington Redskins Say Medical Records Safe after Heist

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — The NFL and the Washington Redskins say there's no evidence indicating medical records are at risk after an athletic trainer's laptop was stolen in April.

The Redskins confirmed that someone broke through the window of a trainer's locked car April 15 in Indianapolis and took a computer. Deadspin reported that the computer included medical records from the past 13 years' worth of scouting combines.

The Redskins said in a statement that no Social Security numbers, protected health information or financial information was stolen or is "at risk of exposure." The laptop was password-protected but not encrypted.
