(Canton, OH) Police arrested former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell on Sunday in Canton, Ohio.  

According to the Canton Repository, the 34-year-old Bell had a warrant out for his arrest in Michigan, which is why he was taken into custody. 

The warrant was issued after he fell behind on payments for child support. 

Bell took part in a meet-and-greet at a mall in Canton, and the arrest occurred at some point shortly after the event.
