By Associated Press

TOLEDO: A former University of Toledo basketball player has been charged with fixing games.

A federal indictment filed in federal court in Detroit says Sammy Villegas shaved points in games during the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons.

Villegas is charged with conspiracy to influence sports contests by bribery.

The indictment says Villegas intentionally missed two free throws in a game against Wright State in 2006.
