A state corrections official says O.J. Simpson has arrived at a Nevada prison.
Nevada Department of Corrections spokeswoman Susanne Pardee says Simpson arrived Monday morning at High Desert State Prison in Indian Springs.
The all-male medium security prison is about 72km northwest of Las Vegas. It has 3,000 beds and serves as the intake center for new southern Nevada prison inmates.
The 61-year-old Simpson was sentenced Friday to nine to 33 years in prison for a September 2007 confrontation with two sports memorabilia dealers over items that the former football star claimed were stolen from him.
A co-defendant, 54-year-old Clarence "C.J." Stewart, was sentenced to 7 and a half to 27 years. He remained Monday at the Clark County Detention Center in Las Vegas.
