It is not known the reasons for this reported arrest.

Gambling911 reported yesterday that shooting for a Fox Sports reality series had neighbors up in arms. It is not known if this is what prompted law enforcement to descend upon the Ayre home.

However, reports are coming in that Ayre had been hosting a poker game at his home and local authorities may have been tipped off to this effect.

The Fox Sports crew is believed to have been on location at Ayre's home at the time of the raid, which has now been confirmed by Gambling911.com and media enterprises within the United States.

Ayre's sprawling home is fortified with extensive armed security, which required a much larger police response.

Ayre was expected to be released shortly.
