LAS VEGAS -- A man was arrested in connection with an alleged armed robbery of sports memorabilia involving O.J. Simpson, and police said Sunday the former football star may be arrested as well.
Simpson is expected to be questioned again Sunday morning and may face arrest, police Lt. Clint Nichols said.
The man detained Saturday night was arrested on two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery and burglarly with a deadly weapon, Nichols said.
He was not identified. Nichols said police were seeking other suspects.
"There may be as many as five outstanding [suspects]," he said.
The man is accused of being among a group of people that went to the room of memorabilia dealers at the Palace Station casino-hotel on Thursday and seized items. Simpson has said the items belonged to him, and police have questioned him once in their investigation.
