Former Kentucky basketball guard Kerr Kriisa is arrested by the FBI in connection with an alleged multimillion-dollar fraud scheme, according to reports from Yahoo Sports and The Jerusalem Post. Both outlets say Kriisa, 25, is being extradited to West Virginia. The reports add that he is scheduled to appear in court for a hearing next week after his transfer. The sources do not provide further specifics about the allegations, including the nature of the alleged fraud, potential victims, or the total amount claimed in the scheme beyond characterizing it as multimillion-dollar.

The reporting is consistent across outlets in describing the FBI arrest, the extradition to West Virginia, and the timing of a forthcoming court appearance, while offering limited additional detail on the case itself.
