Dubas 'very disappointed' to learn of Matthews incident on Twitter

Toronto Maple Leafs general manager Kyle Dubas was as surprised as anyone when he learned of Auston Matthews' legal trouble on Tuesday.

Dubas was "very disappointed" in how he found out about the disorderly conduct charge against Matthews, according to The Athletic's James Mirtle. He told Mirtle that he read the news on Twitter.

The general manager said he called Matthews immediately after he found out and the two had an "honest conversation," according to TSN's Kristen Shilton.

Matthews admitted that not informing the team in May when the incident occurred was an error in judgment, according to Mirtle.

Many expected Matthews to be named the Leafs' next captain, but it's unclear whether the incident will affect the team's plans.

"I don't think today's the day to talk about the captaincy," Dubas told Mirtle.

A female security guard at Matthews' condo complex in Arizona filed a complaint that stated an intoxicated Matthews and two of his friends approached her while she was doing paperwork in her vehicle at around 2 a.m. She said Matthews attempted to open the locked vehicle and sit inside because he thought it would be funny. The security guard said she then exited the vehicle to confront Matthews, but he pulled down his pants and grabbed his buttocks - which appeared to be covered by underwear - as he walked away.

Phoenix outlet 12News released body cam footage of her interview with the police on Wednesday.
