Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost said there is no evidence that showed a 10-year-old girl was raped and impregnated, following reports that claimed a girl in such a predicament was forced to travel across state lines to get an abortion.

The story said that the girl was reportedly denied an abortion in Ohio and had to travel to Indiana to have the procedure. The Indianapolis Star published the story on July 1 and attributed the story solely to an Indianapolis-based obstetrician-gynecologist, Dr. Caitlan Bernard.
