The brothers were taken into custody outside the James L. Knight Center, according to TMZ. Andrew Tate had been scheduled to co-host IBA Bareknuckle 6, according to the organization's website.
The U.S. Marshals Service confirmed the arrests but did not immediately release the charges, saying the warrant remained sealed.
Daily Voice has reached out to the U.S. Marshals Service for more information.
The arrests came on a United Kingdom extradition request tied to criminal charges against the brothers, according to the Crown Prosecution Service.
British prosecutors announced Sunday, July 19, that they had authorized a new round of charges involving four additional alleged victims.
Andrew Tate, 39, now faces seven additional counts of rape, three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation, three counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and 19 additional offenses involving alleged indecent images of a child and extreme pornography, according to the CPS.
Tristan Tate, 38, has been charged with one additional count of sexual assault, two additional counts of rape, and three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation, prosecutors said.
The newly authorized charges stem from incidents alleged to have occurred between July 2010 and August 2017, the CPS said.
The latest charges bring the total number of alleged victims in the case to seven, prosecutors said.
The brothers were already wanted in the United Kingdom on 21 previously authorized charges.
Andrew Tate previously faced 10 charges, including three counts of rape, four counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, two counts of human trafficking, and one count of controlling prostitution for gain, according to the CPS.
Tristan Tate previously faced 11 charges, including three counts of rape, six counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and two counts of human trafficking, prosecutors said.
Those original charges involved three alleged victims.
“We have decided to prosecute Andrew and Tristan Tate for further offences including rape, arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation and offences relating to indecent images of a child,” Malcolm McHaffie, head of the CPS Special Crime Division, said.
“These charging decisions followed receipt of a further file of evidence from Bedfordshire Police and bring the total number of alleged victims in this case to seven,” McHaffie said.
British prosecutors said they will seek extradition on both the original charges and the newly authorized offenses.
The brothers await extradition proceedings in the United States, according to the CPS.
Andrew and Tristan Tate, who built large social media followings around messages promoting wealth and hypermasculinity, have denied wrongdoing.
The brothers also face separate criminal proceedings in Romania, where they were charged with human trafficking, rape, and forming an organized criminal group following their December 2022 arrests.
