• Police arrested Amar'e Stoudemire in Miami on Sunday for battery, court records show.
• Stoudemire played in the National Basketball Association for more than 10 years.

Police arrested former NBA star Amar'e Stoudemire in Miami, Florida, on Sunday and charged him with domestic violence, according to court records. Stoudemire posted a $1,500 bond later on Sunday after a judge handed him a stay away order as a pretrial condition.

Stoudemire is charged with one count of misdemeanor battery, which is a domestic violence charge. Stoudemire is a former professional basketball player who spent more than 10 years in the NBA playing for the Phoenix Suns and the New York Knicks before brief stints with the Miami Heat and the Dallas Mavericks. Stoudemire also competed in the 2004 Olympic Games with Team USA.

An arrest report obtained by The Miami Herald says that Stoudemire's victim was one of his two daughters, who are 14 and 17 years old, but does not specify which daughter. The report says that Stoudemire punched the girl and slapped her hard enough to draw blood, the outlet reported.

"I observed blood stains on the victim's sweater and sweatpants," the arrest report says according to The Herald. "The mother of the victim showed me the photo she received from her daughter, which shows the victim crying and blood running down her face."

The Miami Dade Police Department did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment on Sunday.
