Citing Hollywood Police, US outlet WSVN claim that Miller put the member of staff into a chokehold before slamming him to the ground.

He is then accused of taking the keys to a recently repossessed Dodge Ram and leaving the scene.

Miller had a court hearing on Wednesday afternoon.

He remained in custody in Fort Lauderdale on Wednesday evening, as per Broward's Sheriff's Office.

The boxing heavyweight had been held on a $30,000 (£26,600) bond.

Miller was last in action on December 23 when he lost to Daniel Dubios on the eight-fight Day of Reckoning card in Saudi Arabia.

The American, who hails from Brooklyn, New York, lost to Brit Daniel Dubois via 12th round TKO.

Miller had been due to face Anthony Joshua in 2019, but was replaced at short notice by Andy Ruiz Jr after testing positive for performing enhancing drugs.

Following suspension he returned to the ring after a near-four year lay-off in 2022.

After low-key wins against Ariel Esteban Bracamonte and Derek Cardenas, Miller defeated Lucas Browne back in March.

The 26-1-1 star then stepped up his comeback against Dubois, but was stopped by the 26-year-old.

During his time in Saudi Arabia, Miller got into a heated row with old foe Joshua.

As the duo were dragged away from each other, Joshua told Miller: "I'm still your landlord."
