Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested Saturday afternoon in Miami, according to TMZ, which reported that U.S. Marshals took the brothers into custody outside the James L. Knight Center.
The downtown venue was set to host IBA Bareknuckle 6, TMZ reported. Andrew Tate had been scheduled to cohost the bareknuckle boxing event before the arrest.
TMZ cited law enforcement sources in reporting that the arrests were carried out by U.S. Marshals. The outlet said the charges were not known at the time of its report.
The report did not say whether either brother had been booked, where they were taken after the arrest, or whether attorneys for Andrew or Tristan Tate had responded. TMZ also did not report any comment from the brothers.
