Law enforcement officials in Beverly Hills are currently investigating a dozen sexual assault cases regarding people within the entertainment industry, including Harvey Weinstein and James Toback, police said.

The Beverly Hills Police Department declined to release the identities of any of the others who are being investigated, but confirmed there are presently 12 open cases.

"We take these allegations very seriously and are actively investigating them," a police spokeswoman said in a statement to the Daily News.

The police department has said in the past that allegations against Weinstein and Toback — who have each been accused of sexual misconduct by dozens of women — were being investigated. A BHPD official confirmed they are included in the 12 active cases.
