Controversial social media influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan were detained in the U.S. Sunday as British authorities seek their extradition to face new charges of rape, human trafficking and sexual assault.
Karena Thomas, assistant chief constable of Bedfordshire Police in the U.K., said the pair were detained "pending ongoing legal proceedings." The U.S. Marshals Service confirmed the arrests.
TMZ, a U.S. news outlet, posted video showing law enforcement officers placing the self-professed misogynist and his brother in handcuffs and escorting them into waiting vehicles Saturday in Miami.
Asked by an onlooker if he had something to say, Tristan Tate did not respond, the footage on X showed.
British prosecutors said the arrests followed 38 additional charges filed against the pair.
