LOS ANGELES - Former football star O.J. Simpson could face felony charges, including assaults with a deadly weapon, local reports said on Monday.
O.J. Simpson talks with reporters as he arrives for the funeral of attorney Johnnie Cochran, Jr. at West Angeles Cathedral in Los Angeles, in this April 6, 2005 file photo. Las Vegas police arrested former football star O.J. Simpson on Sunday in connection with a hotel room break-in, CNN said. [Reuters] Simpson was arrested Sunday in connection with an alleged robbery of sports memorabilia from a Las Vegas hotel room. Simpson said he was taking back souvenirs that belonged to him.
He was booked on suspicion of two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit burglary and burglary with a firearm, according to The Los Angeles Times.
Simpson, 60, was in custody at the Clark County Detention Center in Las Vegas on Sunday night after a judge ordered that he be held without bail, pending an arraignment set for Thursday.
Simpson said he and his companions went to the room at the Palace Station Hotel & Casino on Thursday night to reclaim personal photos -- some snapped by his slain ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson -- and football souvenirs that he said had been stolen by a former agent. He claimed that no one in his group was armed.
But police said they found two guns after the incident and that members of Simpson's entourage had pointed weapons at people in the room.
Simpson, suspected in the slayings of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson and her boy friend Ron Goldman in 1994, was acquitted of criminal murder charges but was found liable for their deaths in civil lawsuits
