Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been accused of sexual assault for the second time in as many years. A young woman in Georgia is claiming that the NFL star quarterback sexually assaulted her in a women's bathroom at a club called Capital City in Milledgeville, Georgia. Law enforcement officials have said that she was interviewed and treated at a local hospital and released. They also said a witness was interviewed as well.
Roethlisberger's agent also released a statement about the sexual assault saying that it was basically dismissed after interviewing the women. "Last night, Ben and his friends met a group of women and everyone mingled together throughout the evening. We have spoken to law enforcement. Based on information currently available, an allegation was made against Ben, which appeared to be dismissed after a preliminary investigation last night. Obviously, given the prior accusation against Ben, we are skeptical of motive, but we will continue to cooperate with everyone involved." Roethlisberger is currently being sued by Andrea McNulty who claims the he sexually assaulted her back in 2008.
Stay tuned for more details.
