The Seahawks have told starting linebacker Leroy Hill to stay away from this week's minicamp to deal with his personal issues.

Coach Pete Carroll said after practice Tuesday that he and general manager John Schneider advised Hill it was ``best for him to take care of some things'' rather than attend Seattle's voluntary three-day minicamp.

Hill was arrested for investigation of domestic violence in the Seattle suburb of Issaquah over the weekend, just days after reaching a plea deal on a marijuana charge in Georgia.

A copy of the Issaquah police report says the domestic issue with Hill's girlfriend stemmed from his alleged infidelity.
