Infamous former football star, O.J. Simpson, has been taken into custody amid an investigation into an alleged armed robbery at a local hotel. Las Vegas police escorted Simpson from The Palms hotel today (Sun) where he was put in the back of the police car and taken to the Oakey and Decatur police station for questioning.

As Luxe Life first reported, Simpson and several men broke into a memorabilia dealer’s room on Thursday night at the Palace Station. Someone in Simpson’s party allegedly held the dealer at gunpoint while the O.J. and the other men took memorabilia once owned by the Hall of Famer.

On Saturday, Las Vegas police arrested Walter Alexander and seized two guns in connection with the alleged armed robbery.

Luxe Life, which is currently on the scene among eight national satellite trucks and over 200 photographers, will keep you posted as this story develops.
