LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles police have asked to interview boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. following reports that he may have spoken to Earl Warren Hayes before the rapper killed his wife, then himself.

Detective Scott Masterson says Tuesday that Hayes and actress Stephanie Moseley, had recently gotten back together.

The detective says Moseley, who'd appeared on the TV series "Hit the Floor," called relatives last week to say things were going well.

But police say on Monday, Hayes shot her and himself in their Fairfax-area apartment.

Hayes was an acquaintance of the professional boxer.
