Lawrence Pfohl, known to wrestling fans as Lex Luger, is being held without bail currently in the Hennepin County Jail in Minneapolis at the moment.

The 47-year-old has a scheduled court appearance on December 22 on two felonies, a drug charge from the state of Georgia and a fugitive from justice charge stemming from that original charge.

As covered on other wrestling websites, both Luger and Marcus Bagwell were taken off an airplane in Minneapolis that was flying to Winnipeg on Tuesday due to a disturbance. Both were allowed to get on a different flight later on. When they arrived in Canada, they were detained for a long period and Luger was sent back since it was likely they discovered the outstanding warrant.

Luger was arrested when he arrived back in Minneapolis. This isn't Luger's first run-in with the law as he has encountered one legal problem after another since WCW went out of business. From DUI arrests, to steroid and growth hormone charges found at his home when Elizabeth Hulette passed away to spending a lengthy time period in jail in Atlanta due to nonpayment of child support, Luger has had a very interesting last few years to say the least.
