A woman in Georgia has accused Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger of sexually assaulting her early today. According to TMZ, the alleged assault to took place at “Capital City”—a Milledgeville, GA nightspot.

The woman was treated and released at an area hospital. Authorities are investigating it and have reportedly spoken to Roethlisberger. The Steelers say they are aware of the investigation and have no comment. No charges have been filed in the matter.

A civil suit against Roethlisberger containing similar allegations is currently pending in Reno, NV.

BEN JUST ASK TO TASTE HER CHOCO TACO, HONEST! Ben Roethlisberger is being sued for sexual assault and/or defamation (depending on which Florio post you’re reading) by a Harrah’s employee in Nevada. However no charges have been filed and the quarterback’s lawyer has been quick to deny the claims. Quoth David Cornwell, “Ben has never sexually assaulted anyone; especially Andrea McNulty.” Yeah, Ben would never force himself on somebody, although if he did it wouldn’t be that bitch, am I right? That’s some solid lawyerin’, Corny.

Update: While ESPN remains quiet (conspiracy?) TMZ tells us that Ben’s accuser was “engaged” to a fictitious soldier, who in reality was the wife of the man she was sleeping with. Hoo boy, this is getting uncomfortable. Maybe ESPN staying quiet for the time being is a good thing.

Update II: Florio has the accusers story.
