CHICAGO (Sun-Times Media Wire) ― Tyna Robertson, the mother of Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher's son, was arrested by Cook County Sheriff's police at her Burr Ridge home at 8:30 a.m. Monday, police said.

Robertson was picked up on a warrant for contempt of court issued by a Los Angeles court on December 10. Robertson missed a court date and has not making any payments on a $11 million judgment against her for making false sexual assault accusations against Riverdance star Michael Flatley, Sheriff spokesman Steve Patterson said. Flatley asked that Robertson be held in contempt.

Two children, a girl and Urlacher's son, were at the home when police took Robertson into custody. She arranged for a family member to take care of the kids. Urlacher went to pick up his son Monday morning.

Robertson is being held in a Daley Center lockup until her attorney arrives. She is scheduled to go before Cook County judge Alexander White.

Robertson was headed to court at 11:25 a.m.
