OJ Simpson is "facing a lot of time" in jail after being arrested over an alleged armed robbery of sports memorabilia in Las Vegas.
Police say a judge has ordered Simpson be held without bail.
Prosecutors are planning to charge Simpson with two counts of robbery with use of a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery, burglary with a deadly weapon, two counts of assault with a deadly weapon and coercion.
Clark County District Attorney David Roger said a conviction on the most serious charge, robbery with use of a deadly weapon, could bring a sentence of three to 35 years for each count.
"He is facing a lot of time," Roger said.
Earlier another man was arrested on two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, two of assault with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery and burglary with a deadly weapon.

Police Lieutenant Clint Nichols declined to identify the man adding that police were seeking as many as five other suspects.
The man is accused of being among a group of people that went to the room of memorabilia dealers at the Palace Station casino-hotel on Thursday and seized items.
Simpson has said the items belonged to him, and police have questioned him once in their investigation.
Sports memorabilia collector Alfred Beardsley told police Simpson and other men stole memorabilia at gunpoint.
Simpson, 60, said he was just trying to retrieve memorabilia, particularly photos of his wife and children. There were no guns and no break-in, he said.
Many collectors have profited from Simpson's infamy since the killings in 1994 of his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman.
The former US football star and actor was acquitted of murder but was found liable for their deaths in a civil case.
Lets see Johnny Cochran get him off this one Linkage
Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, Chef's attorney would certainly want you to believe that his client wrote "Stinky Britches" ten years ago. And they make a good case. Hell, I almost felt pity myself! But, ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, [i]this[/]i is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!
Why would a Wookiee, an eight-foot tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of two-foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.
