Local police said Bilzerian was picked up based on an out-of-state warrant. It is unclear if the arrest is connected to an incident that occurred at a Miami Beach club in which the 34-year-old reportedly kicked model Vanessa Castano.

In May, Bilzerian was accused of throwing model Janice Griffith off a roof toward a swimming pool at his Vegas home. Griffith broke her foot and demanded $85,000. Her claim was denied by Bilzerian's lawyer.
