Found broken iPhone 5s. Anyway to find owner using sim card?

This thing is demolished, won't turn on and the screen is completely broken. The sim card is in perfect condition from AT&T. Is there anyway to locate the owner using the sim? Is there a sim card reader that I can buy? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, thanks.User uploaded file

Didn't say that. Here's what happens:


1) doom_dude walks into an AT&T store with the phone.urn the phone in to AT&T.

2) He tells them he found this phone, discovered that the sim is AT&T, and asks them if this phone belongs to one of their customers.

3a) If AT&T says "yes", doom_dude leaves the phone with them, walks out and lets AT&T contact the customer and organize whatever else is needed. Doom_dude is no longer involved.

3b) If AT&T says "no", doom_dude pursues other options that I cannot give.


Simple.
