Ex-MLB player Albert Belle arrested for extreme DUI, indecent exposure
Former MLB player Albert Belle was arrested on Sunday in Scottsdale on suspicion of DUI and indecent exposure, according to a report.
Matt Rodewald of FOX in Phoenix reported Sunday night that the former Cleveland Indians slugger was arrested for two counts of indecent exposure, one count of DUI and one count of extreme DUI. The arrest reportedly took place during a spring training game in Scottsdale.
Rodewald also shared Belle’s mug shot:

Belle, 51, was a five-time All-Star who led the league in RBIs three times during his 12-year career. He was known for being a hot-head during his career and having a surly relationship with the media. He was once suspended for using a corked bat and having a teammate try to sneak into the umpire’s room to replace the evidence. He also had an infamous incident when he trucked Fernando Vina on the bases.
Our last post on Belle was in 2012 and noted how much weight he’d put on. That was apparent in his mug shot.
