Professional boxer Adrien Broner was arrested by Covington Police Sunday morning with an outstanding warrant from Cuyahoga County, according to Kenton County Court's arrest records.
Broner was brought in by police around 1 a.m. Sunday and was released on a $25,000 cash bond, according to Kenton County Court documents. He is expected to return to court on Oct. 11.
Cuyahoga County Court issued a warrant for Broner's arrest in August after violating his probation sentencing. In 2019, Broner pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of assault and unlawful restraint and was sentenced to probation.
On March 23, Broner failed to appear for a probation violation hearing in court, and a warrant for his arrest was sent to the Cuyahoga County Sheriff. A letter of apprehension was also sent to the Hamilton County Sheriff's office on March 30, according to court documents.
The warrant for Broner's arrest was recalled on April 14.
Broner then appeared in court on April 26 and his probation sentencing was extended an extra year to April 2022. Broner was also ordered to enter an intensive outpatient treatment program.
But on August 28, Broner had failed to enter a treatment program, and a second warrant for his arrest was issued, read court documents. A second letter of apprehension was also sent to the Hamilton County Sheriff's Office on Sept. 13.
Violation of Broner's probation could result in six months jail time or more restrictive sanctions, according to Cuyahoga County jail.
