Former NFL running back Le'Veon Bell is currently in some hot water following an arrest in Ohio. The Canton Repository reports that Bell's arrest stemmed from a warrant in Michigan. This warrant had to do with alleged child support that the NFL superstar still owed.
The 34-year-old athlete was held at the Stark County jail on a “courtesy hold for another agency.” It is believed that the former NFL star owes upwards of $50,000 in child support.
As per TMZ, Bell's attorney, Thomas Shaffer, has been adamant that the NFL star cannot afford his child support payments. He claims the payments were based on his NFL income, which no longer exists. In fact, Bell allegedly had to take his NFL pension and put it towards child support.
