Former NFL running back and Super Bowl champion Derrick Ward was reportedly arrested in Los Angeles this week over multiple alleged robberies.

The 43-year-old is accused of robbing a number of businesses including gas stations, according to TMZ.

Ward, who was part of the New York Giants team that won Super Bowl XLII in 2008, was arrested on Monday lunchtime and booked into custody later that evening.

The LA native is said to have used 'force' and 'fear' to take money from the stores, though police reportedly allege that he did not use a gun during the robberies.

TMZ claims that jail records show Ward remained in custody as of Tuesday morning, with his bail set at $250,000.
