Some stunning news out of the NFL today. 

Former running back Adrian Peterson, one of the greatest players in NFL history at the position, was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport earlier today following a domestic violence indecent with his wife on a plane that was about to take off.

According to reports, the plan was already on the runway and had to return in order for Peterson to be taken off the flight. 

"Earlier today Adrian and his wife Ashley had a verbal argument on a flight, and he was removed from the plane," a representative for the couple told TMZ. "This is a private misunderstanding between husband and wife and we anticipate it will all be resolved shortly."

Of course, Peterson has had run-ins with the law in the past, including a well-publicized incident in 2014 for alleged child abuse.
