According to a report from LA AFICION, former WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio (Alberto El Patron), was arrested on Monday, April 6 in the Lomas del Tec subdivision in the capital of San Luis Potosí for allegedly assaulting his romantic partner.
The report also notes the woman, who suffered injuries to her face and arms, called 911 for police assistance. It was added that State Civil Guard officers arrived at the scene just as Del Rio was attacking and found her with signs of violence, thus arresting Del Rio.
Del Rio has been placed under the custody of the Attorney General’s Office of the State of San Luis Potosí (FGE) to face the corresponding charges.
In December 2021, Del Rio was accused and then arrested of sexual assault in San Antonio, Texas. However, he was acquitted of the charges after the witness no-showed for court. Del Rio was also suspended for 180 days by AAA by Tijuana authorities after he tossed a chair at a fan during an event.
It was reported last May that Del Rio re-signed with WWE as part of WWE’s acquisition of AAA. However, he has never appeared on any of WWE’s programming.
