AMES, Iowa (AP) -Authorities say Iowa State defensive back David Sims is being investigated in connection with a stolen credit card, though no charges have been filed.
Ames police commander Mike Brennan says a Des Moines woman reported July 17 that her credit card, which her son had taken to Ames, was stolen. The card was then used at several Ames-area businesses.
Police obtained a warrant and searched Sims' apartment Tuesday, but they wouldn't say what they found.
Sims, a senior from Gainesville, Fla., was the Big 12's Defensive Newcomer of the Year in 2009 after leading the Cyclones with five interceptions.
A telephone message left Friday for Sims wasn't immediately returned. Coach Paul Rhoads has declined to comment.
The investigation was first reported by The Des Moines Register.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. The information contained in the AP News report may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed without the prior written authority of The Associated Press.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
