Ex-NBA star Antoine Walker facing bad check charges

Update: One day after an arrest warrant was issued stemming from his gambling debts, Antoine Walker was arrested in Harrah's Casino in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada.

Walker was taken to the Douglas County Jail; his bail was set at $87,000.

He partied and gambled heavily in Las Vegas. And now, another sports figure finds himself in legal "foul trouble."

Tuesday afternoon, a Las Vegas judge issued an arrest warrant for ex-NBA star Antoine Walker. He's facing felony bad check charges for allegedly not paying back some enormous casino debts.

News 3's Steve Crupi is digging deeper into the details of this case and reports that three big casinos are involved.

According to the criminal complaint, Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood, and the Red Rock Station gave former NBA star Antoine Walker huge amounts of gambling money.

He allegedly received $1 million in all, most of which he has not re-paid.

Walker played last year for the Minnesota Timberwolves. And before that, he was a three-time all-star with the Celtics.

And he is again racking up big numbers, but not on the scoreboard.

The criminal complaint against Walker says he received ten separate casino loans for $100,000. He has failed to pay back more than $800,000-worth of that money, lost gambling last year at Caesars, Planet Hollywood, and the Red Rock.
