He left Belgravia police station in London in a black BMW with darkened windows after being questioned by detectives for around four hours.
The former This Morning presenter, 37, attended the police station by arrangement and with his solicitor.
While he was being questioned, a Scotland Yard spokesman said: "A man has been arrested and is being interviewed in connection with allegations of rape and indecent assault."
Three women have made allegations to police about Leslie - one of rape and two of indecent assault.
<b>Sacked</b>
One woman alleges she was raped in south west London in 1998.
Another claims she was indecently assaulted by the star in the same part of London in 1997.
A third woman claims she was indecently assaulted by him in London last year.
He was sacked as the presenter of ITV1's This Morning programme following the claims about his private life.
<b>Denial</b>
Leslie's solicitor released a statement on Thursday afternoon, saying the celebrity "strenuously denies the allegations".
Leslie has not been charged with any offences.
