Police Nab Suspect In Javon Walker Beating

Las Vegas police have made an arrest in the robbery and beating case involving NFL player Javon Walker.

Lt. Clinton Nichols said Tuesday that 30-year-old Arfat Fadel is suspected of multiple felonies including kidnapping and robbery. Police said Fadel was arrested Friday and police were looking for a second suspect.

Nichols said police believe the second man is still in Las Vegas.

He said the 29-year-old Walker got into a vehicle with the two men early June 16 before he was found beaten and unconscious on a side street near the Las Vegas Strip.

Walker told police $3,000 in cash and about $100,000 in jewelry were taken.

Police said Walker suffered a moderate concussion and significant facial injuries. He was treated at a Las Vegas hospital.

He signed a six-year, $55 million deal with the Raiders after being released by the Denver Broncos in February.
