Ex NFL Star Warren Sapp Arrested for Domestic Violence

Former NFL star and Dancing with the Stars contestant Warren Sapp was arrested over the weekend for domestic violence. Sapp was taken in to custody at Miami Beach’s Shore Club hotel Saturday afternoon after allegedly attacking his girlfriend of 2-years early that morning.

The unidentified woman claims Sapp dragged her out of bed around 5 a.m. yelling about men’s numbers in her cell phone. She alleges the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers player shoved her down on to a couch and choked her, resulting in a swollen knee and bruises on her neck. The woman was treated at Mount Sinai Medical Center.

Sapp, who also played for the Oakland Raiders, denies the accusations and claims he helped her off the couch after she fell backwards and hurt her knee. He is cooperating with authorities.

Sapp, 37, was in Miami to cover the Super Bowl for the NFL Network. The network has pulled Sapp off the air while the incident is investigated.

"We were made aware this afternoon of the arrest of Warren Sapp by the Miami Police Department (sic). In light of these circumstances, Warren Sapp will not appear on NFL Network while we review the matter," the NFL Network said in a statement.

Sapp’s attorney, Christopher Lyons, released a statement saying, “We ask that everyone reserve judgment on the matter until all the facts come out in a court of law.”
