Former NBA star Dennis Rodman was arrested Wednesday night for domestic violence, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department confirms to Usmagazine.com.

"LAPD officers were called out to investigate a domestic dispute in a [Century City, California] hotel," Public Information Officer Sara Faden tells Us. "During the investigation, police learned that Dennis Rodman struck a woman, who suffered injuries to her arms."

The basketball player, who was once married to Carmen Electra, was charged with the felony and taken into custody.

Rodman was released early this morning from jail, TMZ.com reports.

Police would not confirm the identity of the female. In June 2003, Rodman, 46, married Michelle Moyer. They have two children together: a son, D.J., and a daughter, Trinity.

Scary looking! So does he even play bball anymore? How long did he even play? I always forget that was his thing because 90% of the stuff you read about him has NOTHING to do with basketball.

What a jerk, hitting a woman. Oh wait, he is kind of a woman himself.
