Alberto Del Rio Ordered To Stay in Custody After Recent Arrest
An update has emerged on former WWE star Alberto Del Rio's arrest.
Reports suggest that State Civil Guard officers responded to an emergency call at a residence in the Lomas del Tec neighborhood. Following their arrival, authorities allegedly found Del Rio in the act of physically and verbally assaulting his partner, who showed visible injuries on her face and arms.
Del Rio was detained at the scene and transferred to the Fiscalía General del Estado de San Luis Potosí. The alleged victim is currently under medical and legal protection, according to multiple reports.
The former WWE Champion remains in preventive detention after being formally charged with family violence by the State General Prosecutor's Office in San Luis Potosí, Mexico. As per Milenio, a control judge ordered Del Rio to be held as the investigation continues.
The charge of violencia familiar (domestic violence) carries a penalty of one to seven years in prison, along with a fine ranging from 20 to 700 UMA days. Based on the 2026 UMA rate of 117.31 pesos per day, that equates to approximately 2,346 to 82,117 pesos.
Furthermore, Lesiones Cometidas contra la Mujer en Razón de su Género (injuries committed against a woman based on her gender), carries a potential sentence of eight to 20 years in prison and a fine between 400 and 700 UMA days, or roughly 46,924 to 82,117 pesos.
Del Rio's defense team has requested additional time under the constitutional framework in order to determine his legal status.
