The number of sexual assaults at West Point nearly doubled in the last school year, the fourth straight year the military academy recorded an increase, a report said Wednesday.
The school in upstate New York had 50 cases in the school year that ended last summer, compared with the 26 during the 2015-2016 school year, the Associated Press reported after reviewing data from the Defense Department.
That rate outpaces sexual assaults at the Naval Academy, which showed an increase from 28 to 29, and the Air Force Academy, which edged up one to 33, over the same period, the wire service reported.
