(From The Daily News Wire Service)

Former NFL Running Back LAWRENCE PHILLIPS, who was wanted by police for DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, was ARRESTED YESTERDAY in LOS ANGELES after allegedly RUNNING THE CAR HE WAS DRIVING INTO THREE TEENAGERS who argued with him during A PICKUP FOOTBALL GAME, police said.

Police had been seeking Phillips since earlier this month for allegedly ATTACKING HIS GIRLFRIEND TWICE, once CHOKING HER INTO UNCONSCIOUSNESS.

Phillips joined a group of 16 and 17 year-olds in A PICKUP FOOTBALL GAME and got into an argument with some of the teens, said LOS ANGELES Police Officer SANDRA ESCALANTE. He left, but came back and DROVE A CAR ONTO THE FIELD, hitting three of the boys, she said.

The three teenagers were treated at a hospital. None of their injuries was considered life-threatening, police said.

The car was reported STOLEN in SAN DIEGO last week, Escalante said.

Phillips was ARRESTED and held on THE DOMESTIC-VIOLENCE FELONY WARRANT.

Charges are pending in yesterday's incident, Escalante said.
