Wesley Snipes Arrest - Another Case of Profiling?

Newstoob has learned Wesley Snipes has been arrested on the east coast and taken into custody by federal authorities.  The actor was arrested Friday morning after arriving at Orlando International Airport.

Snipes reported that his arrest was part of a witch hunt and that he was unfairly targeted by prosecutors in connection with a federal tax fraud investigation.

Snipes had been out of the United States shooting a movie in Namibia.  Newstoob looked into the events leading up to his warrant and arrest, and it seems the White Men Can't Jump star is accused of failing to pay nearly $12 million in taxes. Internal Revenue Officials allege that Snipes fraudulently claimed refunds in 1996 and 1997, and did even bother to file returns from 1999 and 2006.
