Former NFL running back Mark Walton has been arrested and charged with armed robbery after he and an accomplice pulled a gun on someone and demanded “everything” including the person’s Rolex watch. According to the NYP, the incident happened last month in Miami.
According to police documents obtained by TMZ, Walton and an accomplice pulled a gun on a person and demanded “everything”—eventually he made off with a Rolex after a confrontation. The incident was caught on surveillance video.
Walton was arrested and booked on Tuesday and held without bond on armed robbery charges.
Who is Mark Walton?
Walton, 24, played for the Bengals in 2018 after being drafted in the fourth round out of the University of Miami and then for the Dolphins in 2019.
He was released by the Bengals after he was arrested three times, and then by the Dolphins after he was accused of attacking a woman who was pregnant with his child.
More trouble for NFL player Mark Walton … the running back was arrested AGAIN Thursday after cops say he was involved in a dispute with the mother of his child.
Police in Opa-Locka, Fla., tell CBS Miami … they responded to a domestic dispute call around 3:30 a.m. and found 22-year-old Walton arguing with a woman.
After cops say they found the woman had a protection order against Walton … they arrested the former Miami Dolphins player — booking him at Miami-Dade County jail.
Last year, Walton was arrested after a confrontation at a Pizza Hut. Police said Walton drove to the Pizza Hut, frustrated that they canceled his order, and confronted an employee. Police said they found his cousin, who they said tried to de-escalate the situation, bleeding in the parking lot.
Walton is just another example of wasted talent. Hopefully, he gets the mental health help that he really needs.
