Former New York Mets and Kansas City Royals pitcher, Ambiorix Burgos, was charged with kidnapping and attempted murder after Dilenia Reynoso, his ex-wife, said she was forced to eat rat poison, according to the Associated Press.

A Dominican Republic judge, Freddy Frias ordered Burgos to remain in jail for three months while prosecutors prepare the case.

This isn’t the first time Burgos got in trouble. In 2008, he was accused in a fatal hit-and-run involving two women, but the charges were dropped. A New York jury found Burgos guilty of assualting his girlfriend in a hotel near Shea Stadium. He was sentenced to nine months in jail.

Burgos, 26, pitched for the Royals in 2005-2006 and with the Mets in 2007. In 144 career Major League games, he was 8-10 with a 4.60 ERA and 20 saves.
