I'm confused by why/how he was arrested in Spain for failing to pay US taxes? Or am I missing something?

  It's known as extradition and many countries have extradition treaties with the US https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/da/US_extradition_treaties.svg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/da/US_extra... the details of how it works depends on the particular treaty.

    It wasn't the extradition that I was confused by, that I get. It was the arrest. I thought extradition only applied to people who had been arrested in one country for another crime and were then being tried in a different country for a different crime. I didn't understand that the Spanish police would arrest somebody on an accused crime commited in another country.
