ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- A linebacker who played one season for the Minnesota Vikings and later spent time with the Milwaukee Mustangs of the Arena Football League is dead.

Ivan Orsen Caesar Junior was fatally shot in an Orlando apartment building after a dispute. He was 41.

The Orange County's sheriff's office says he was found at the Tuscany Village Apartments early yesterday.

Caesar was born in the U.S. Virgin Islands. He played for Boston College and appeared in 14 games for the Vikings in 1991 before going to the Arena Football League from 1995 to 1999 for teams in Tampa, Milwaukee and Portland, Oregon.
