Police here said on Monday they hope to interview Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger within a few days regarding a sexual assault accusation against him. Milledgeville Police Chief Woodrow Blue held a brief press conference on Monday but offered little information on the case, in which the NFL star quarterback has not been charged. Police are probing a claim by a 20-year-old university student that Roethlisberger sexually assaulted her on Friday. Blue says police have spoken with Roethlisberger's lawyer, Ed Garland, and they expect Garland to arrange for them to speak with the player. Garland's office confirmed on Monday that Roethlisberger had retained the attorney, who has previously represented rapper T.I. on a federal weapons charge and Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis in a murder case. Lewis eventually pleaded guilty to a misdemeanour obstruction of justice charge after more serious charges against him were dropped. Steelers President Art Rooney II said in a statement the team is keeping tabs on the situation. 'All of us in the Steelers family are concerned about the recent incident involving Ben Roethlisberger in Georgia,' Rooney said. 'We cannot comment on any of the specifics until law enforcement's investigation is concluded.' Roethlisberger, who owns a lakefront home about 30 miles north of Milledgeville, is also being sued by a woman in Nevada who claims he raped her in 2008 at a hotel-casino in Lake Tahoe. Roethlisberger's agent, Ryan Tollner, said in a statement the day after the Milledgeville incident that he is sceptical of the alleged victim's motive because of those allegations.
