Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for secretary of defense, was investigated for an “alleged sexual assault” in 2017 by police in Monterey, California, the city said in a statement.

The city’s statement did not say what happened to the case or provide any indication that charges were considered against Hegseth. But the revelation that the complaint was brought against him and investigated by the police has roiled the Trump transition team and raised new questions about the viability of Hegseth’s nomination to lead the nation’s military.
