INTERNATIONAL: Adrian Peterson, the former NFL MVP and the fifth-leading rusher in league history, was arrested on a felony domestic violence charge Sunday (February 13) morning in Los Angeles, according to multiple media reports.

Peterson, who is currently a free agent, was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport following an incident that allegedly occurred on a plane that was set to depart for Houston.

Police were alerted and the plane was forced to return to the gate "due to an alleged verbal and physical altercation between a male suspect and female victim," according to NFL.com.

Peterson reportedly grabbed his wife Ashley's wedding ring and scratched her finger, according to a source that further noted that Ashley Peterson was not going to press charges.

Police investigated and decided to take Peterson into custody. Peterson was given a bail of $50,000 and was released later Sunday on bond.

"This is a private misunderstanding between husband and wife and we anticipate it will all be resolved shortly," the Petersons' representative said in a statement

Peterson was charged with felony child abuse in 2014 and eventually pleaded no contest to a reduced charge of misdemeanour reckless assault. He was fined, placed on probation and assigned community service.

The NFL suspended him for the 2014 season.
