Antoine Walker Arrested In Tahoe

Antoine Walker was arrested Wednesday night in Harrah’s Casino in South Lake Tahoe, Nev., NBC Sports reported.

The arrest came a day after a warrant was issued stemming from Walker’s $822,500 in gambling debts. He faces three felony counts of writing bad checks. Prosecutors say he failed to make good on 10 checks totaling $1 million written to Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood, and the Red Rock Resort.

Walker, 32, was reportedly led out of the building in handcuffs, and his bail has been set at $87,000.

Walker took out gambling markers at Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood, and Red Rock Resort worth $1 million from July 27, 2008, to Jan. 19, 2009. Walker paid back $178,000, but now also owes $82,550 in fees to the district attorney’s office for executing the criminal prosecution requested by the casinos.
