Several top FIFA officials, including Vice President Jeffrey Webb have been arrested in Switzerland on corruption charges, according to reports.
Swiss police - at the request of U.S. authorities - detained six officials in an early-morning operation in Zurich on suspicion of receiving and paying millions of dollars in bribes.
More than a dozen plain-clothed officers arrived unannounced at a hotel.
