O.J. Arrested In Armed Robbery
I really hope they can nail him. He's already gotten away with murder, hopefully he won't get away with this.
O.J. Simpson was arrested Sunday on charges related to an armed robbery involving sport memorabilia, police said.
Simpson was arrested shortly after 11 a.m. and is being brought to a police office, Capt. James Dillon said.
Simpson has said he and other people with him went to the Palace Station casino-hotel on Thursday to retrieve items that belonged to him. He told police no guns were involved.
Police said earlier Sunday that two firearms and other evidence had been seized during the investigation after a search of a private residence. At least one other person has been arrested.
***UPDATE***
O.J. is held WITHOUT bail on armed robbery charges.
O.J. Simpson was arrested Sunday and held without bail on charges related to the armed robbery of sports memorabilia in a Las Vegas hotel room, Las Vegas police said Sunday.
Prosecutors were planning to charge Simpson with two counts of robbery with use of a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery, burglary with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon and coercion, said Clark County District Attorney David Roger.
A conviction on the most serious charge, robbery with use of a deadly weapon, could bring a sentence of three to 35 years for each count, he said.
"He is facing a lot of time," Roger said.
