Otter Tail County (trfnews.i234.me) A former Fergus Falls doctor is now facing felony sex charges.

Zvi Levran, 69, of Fergus Falls, faces six felony counts of criminal sexual conduct in Otter Tail County.

Court records say Levran served as a “hockey doctor” for youth players in Minnesota.

Prosecutors say the case involves two high school hockey players.

Records say Levran was in a position of authority during medical visits.

They say the alleged abuse happened from December 2014 to January 2016.

The criminal complaint describes two separate patients.

In the first case, a player had an ankle injury after a hockey game in December 2014.
