Rays' Randy Arozarena released from Mexican custody after alleged incident with daughter

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena was released by Mexican authorities on Thursday, two days after he was taken into custody over an alleged incident involving his daughter, according to The Associated Press.

Arozarena was arrested on Tuesday in Yucatan — a Mexican state along the Gulf of Mexico — after allegedly trying to abduct his daughter from her mother’s home and assaulting the woman’s father.

He was released on Thursday after his daughter’s mother said she did not want to press charges and that any damages had been settled, per the report.
