From KAIT-8:
Fifteen Toledo players reported to the University Police Department the theft of $1,737; wallets; credit cards; and three headphone sets valued at $459. According to the initial UPD incident report, the items were taken from the visiting team’s locker room at the football stadium.
Toledo’s director of operations Andrew Terwilliger told the station the locker room was locked during the first half.
Following half-time, when players needed to retrieve something, he said a coach or doctor would accompany them. Terwilliger said none of the players remembered seeing anyone in the locker room.
There are currently no suspects in the case.

This isn’t the first time items have been stolen from a visiting college football team. Last season, New Mexico State had items stolen from its bus during its game against Florida in Gainesville.
