Article Summary:

Longtime NFL running back Adrian Peterson was arrested hours before Super Bowl LVI on Sunday, according to TMZ, but the former MVP won’t face a felony domestic violence charge stemming from an incident at Los Angeles International Airport. Peterson was initially booked for the charge, but a representative from the Los Angeles district attorney’s office said it elected not to charge the NFL running back.

Just four miles from SoFi Stadium, home of the big game, Peterson was reportedly removed from a plane attempting to take off for Houston after an apparent verbal and physical altercation between Peterson and his wife, Ashley Brown. The case will be sent to the Los Angeles City Attorney, which could still bring misdemeanor domestic violence charges against Peterson.
