Celebrity real estate twin brothers Tal and Oren Alexander were arrested by the FBI in Miami amid allegations of sexual assault.
The Alexander brothers, known as star real estate agents formerly with Douglas Elliman, were taken into custody alongside their brother Alon, an executive at a security firm, following lawsuits from two women.
One lawsuit filed in March accused Oren and Alon of rape, and a second lawsuit included similar allegations against Tal, reports the Wall Street Journal.
The men have denied the allegations in the lawsuits, which shocked the real estate world where Tal and Oren were rising stars. The charges they have been arrested on are currently unspecified.
Since June, the siblings have faced several lawsuits and allegations from up to 30 women of rape and sexual assault.
One of their accusers, star of Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles Tracy Tutor, 48, joined nine other women in making claims of sexual assault to the New York Times in July.
Seven of the women, including Tutor, said they believe they were drugged before being raped by either Tal, 38, or the younger twins Oren and Alon, 37.
On Wednesday, FBI agents were seen outside Oren’s home in Miami, and a spokesperson with the FBI’s New York division told Bloomberg they obtained a search warrant for his property.

After a wave of allegations were made earlier this year, Florida attorney Jim Ferraro withdrew his representation from Oren and Alon.
The siblings made their name in the luxury real estate world in New York City and Miami, and often shared their lavish lifestyles on social media.
Tal and Oren were previously employed by luxury real estate firm Douglas Elliman, but branched out on their own in 2022 and started their own company, Official.
However, the brothers have reportedly had to step down from their company after key clients dropped them and a wave of staff left.
Their history with Douglas Elliman also led CEO of the realtor giant Howard Lorber to resign after he was accused of ignoring rape claims against the Alexander brothers.
