Everton player/Ecuadorian soccer star Enner Valencia came back to his home country this week in order to play a 2018 World Cup qualifier against Chile. Complicating this homecoming was the fact that, at a Thursday morning practice, some police as well as a lawyer for the mother of his child tried to arrest him in order to get him to pay $17,000 in child support that he allegedly owes. But somehow, Valencia avoided the initial arrest attempt after some of the cops that were present declined to take him into custody.
Later in the day, police also stopped his team bus as it tried to enter the stadium for the match against Chile but, for whatever reason, they again left without arresting him.
Oh, and after all that, the judge in Valencia's child support case rescinded the arrest warrant that was out for him. So for now at least, he won't have to worry about making any more escapes.
