PHOENIX (AP) - Former NFL lineman and Hall of Famer Warren Sapp was arrested Monday on suspicion of soliciting a prostitute and allegedly assaulting two women, Phoenix police said.

Sapp was taken into custody at a downtown Phoenix hotel and booked into jail, police said. It wasn't immediately clear if he has an attorney.

Sapp, 42, was in Arizona for Sunday's Super Bowl in suburban Glendale and is a broadcaster for the NFL Network.

"Warren Sapp has been suspended indefinitely without pay from NFL Network pending the outcome of ongoing police investigation," Alex Riethmiller, a spokesman for the network, said in a statement Monday.

Sapp, a tackle and defensive end, played in the NFL from 1995-2007 for Tampa Bay and Oakland. He was a vital contributor for the Buccaneers as they went from also-ran to Super Bowl champion after the 2002 season and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2013.

However, Sapp has had a history with legal troubles around the Super Bowl. He was arrested the day before the Super Bowl in 2010 on a domestic battery charge, but prosecutors later dropped the case because of inconsistences between the victim's statements and evidence, including surveillance video.
