Roethlisberger yet to be interviewed by Ga. police

ATLANTA — Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has yet to meet with authorities in Georgia who are investigating a sexual assault allegation made by a 20-year-old college student.

Roethlisberger’s attorney Ed Garland said late Tuesday that his client is not in Georgia and has yet to speak with investigators regarding the allegation filed against him this month in Milledgeville, Ga.

Garland also says there is no timetable for the interview.

The student told police that the two-time Super Bowl winner, who had been out barhopping with friends, assaulted her at a nightclub in Milledgeville, Ga.

Roethlisberger has not been charged and Garland has said the quarterback is innocent of any crime.
