Influencer brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested by federal authorities Saturday in Miami, according to the US Marshals Service.
The charges against the pair were not immediately announced. Brady McCarron, a spokesman for the Marshals Service, said the warrant was sealed.
They were arrested on an extradition request from the UK, according to a person familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to publicly discuss the case.
The brothers, proponents of hypermasculinity who have millions of followers on social media, have been wanted in the United Kingdom, where they face rape and human trafficking charges.
