Florida's Erving Walker arrested
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida basketball player Erving Walker was arrested early Friday in connection to a $3 taco stolen from a Gainesville street vendor.
According to an arrest report, Walker ordered and received a taco from a street vendor on Main Street but fled without paying. Police chased Walker onto University Avenue, at which time an officer shouted, "Police! Stop!" The report stated that Walker looked back at the officer but continued to flee.
The 22-year-old Walker was eventually caught several blocks later. According to the report, Walker admitted to stealing the taco but said he was "just playing around."
Walker finished his career at Florida last weekend when the Gators lost to Louisville in the West Region final. He is the school's all-time leader in assists (547) and is fourth in scoring (1,777 points).
....this guy is fortunate he wasn't shot.....just what we need, another international incident over a taco!
Obviously, this guy will be fun and easy to coach!! Maybe the Jazz can trade down in the draft and pick this fabulously talented genius for next years championship run!
