A former West Point cadet is the subject of a lawsuit alleging that he drugged his girlfriend and forced abortion pills into her mouth and vagina, Fox News reported. The report said the suit was filed by the woman, who is described as the victim.

According to Fox News, the account of the alleged conduct comes from the lawsuit itself, which the woman filed as the plaintiff. The report describes the defendant as a former cadet at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.

Fox News used the word "Horrifying" in its headline to describe the allegations. The summary of the report available for this story did not include any statement from the former cadet, his attorney, or the military academy.

Several details remain unclear from the material available. The summary does not name the court where the lawsuit was filed, the date it was filed, or whether any criminal charges have been brought against the defendant. Fox News presents the allegations as claims made in the lawsuit, not as findings by a court.

No other outlet's account was among the sources used for this story.
