After learning of the event, Operation Rescue requested 911 records. It
obtained a redacted report verifying the medical emergency as well as a
garbled radio dispatch clip
indicating that an 18-year old woman fell, hit her head, and was "not alert"
when the dispatch was made. The hospital she was transported to and her current medical condition were not released publicly.
Springfield Right to Life said that the incident occurred on a surgical abortion day. Women who undergo surgical abortions can experience dizziness and lightheadedness from sedation or blood loss. In some cases, it can be a
sign of severe medical issues stemming from the abortion procedure. Too much blood loss can be fatal, and internal bleeding is not always easy to detect.
“A fainting spell and head strike can be serious enough in itself, but when it
is abortion-related, it is even more cause for concern,” said Operation Rescue
President Troy Newman. “Abortion is not safe and this is another incident that supports that claim. Anyone who says otherwise is just parroting agenda-driven
fake news talking points from the Abortion Cartel.”
