Allen Iverson's ex-wife says that the former Sixers star has abducted his own children, according to reports from TMZ and NESN.

Tawanna Iverson filed papers that said Allen asked for permission to take their five kids on vacation on May 22 and agreed to bring them back on May 26. When that day rolled around, Iverson had not returned the kids. The kids range in age from 3 to 16 years old.

Tawanna, who has sole legal and primary physical custody of their children, set up an exchange with Allen on June 4, but he did not show up, according to the report. Tawanna has not seen them since. She believes he never took them to North Carolina and has them at a Sheraton Hotel in Georgia.
