One man has been arrested and other is sought after in the Javon Walker robbery case. The robbery left Walker unconscious on a Las Vegas street last week.Police said Arfat Fadel, of Las Vegas, was accused of multiple felonies, including kidnapping, robbery, battery and conspiracy in a June 16 robbery. Lt. Clinton Nichols said Walker lost about $3,000 in cash and $100,000 worth of jewelry in the robbery.
"Mr. Walker was in town to have a good time, as many of our visitors to Las Vegas do," Nichols said. "As he will readily admit, he probably had a little too much to drink and he did not pick up on the clues that Mr. Fadel was someone he probably should not have been with."
A picture of the alleged assailant was released. He is still at large.
Nichols says that Walker got out of a friend's vehicle and got into Fadel's Range Rover (the other man was also in the car). The two then assaulted and robbed Walker before pulling over and dumping him onto the street. It isn't known why Walker got into Fadel's car.
The interesting thing, here, is that this goes against Walker's story. He says he was was assaulted and robbed at his hotel room, dragged out to the street and left unconscious. He has been called out on this already, so it will be very interesting to see why, exactly, he lied.
