LAS VEGAS (AP) --O.J. Simpson is in custody in Florida on allegations that he violated
terms of his release on bail in a Las Vegas armed robbery case, a court
official said Friday.
Simpson was to go before a judge Wednesday at the request of Clark
County District Attorney David Roger, who was filing a motion Friday to
revoke Simpson's bail, according to a court clerk.
"We understand he's in the custody of his bail bondsman in Florida
right now, and will be brought to Las Vegas for the hearing,'' said
Elana Pitaro, a clerk for District Court Judge Jackie Glass.
A bail bondsman at You Ring We Spring bail bonds in North Las Vegas declined to comment.
Simpson was freed Sept. 19 on $125,000 bail following his arrest on
allegations he and several friends burst into a Las Vegas hotel room
and robbed two sports memorabilia dealers at gunpoint.
Simpson's lawyer, Yale Galanter, did not return phone messages seeking comment.
