MIRAMAR (CBSMiami) – Two NFL players arrested in South Florida had their first court appearance Sunday.

Deandre Baker and Quinton Dunbar are facing multiple armed robbery charges.

A judge allowed bond for both Baker and Dunbar despite the state’s wishes.

Baker’s bond was set at $200,000 while Dunbar was offered bail at $100,000.

However, they are not allowed to have contact with witnesses and must turn over and firearms they own.

Both men are expected to be released sometime Sunday. Their lawyers mentioned during the hearings that both Baker and Dunbar had no criminal history.

The men turned themselves into police on Saturday after warrants were issued for their arrests.

Investigators said it all stems from an incident at a house party in Miramar Wednesday night.

One of the witnesses told police that “attendees were playing cards, video games and gambling” when an argument broke out involving Baker. The witness said Baker flipped the card game table, and then pulled out a gun as did Dunbar.

Baker, Dunbar, and two other men, one identified only as “Shy” began robbing other people at the party of thousands of dollars in cash, luxury watches, and other valuables, witnesses told investigators.

Police said the four men then fled the home in three vehicles: a Mercedes Benz, a Lamborghini, and a BMW. Witnesses said the vehicles were parked in a way that would make it easy to leave quickly, leading detectives to believe the robbery was planned. No injuries were reported.

Dunbar‘s attorney Michael Grieco said, “He did not participate in any robbery.” He said that 4 alleged victims and a witness changed their stories saying “…any robbery or assault did not involve Mr. Dunbar…” that “…he fled the home.”

Baker and Dunbar are both from Miami.

Baker was one of three first-round draft picks the Giants had last season.

“We are aware of the situation. We have been in contact with Deandre,” the Giants said in a statement. “We have no further comment at this time.”

Dunbar signed with the Washington Redskins as an undrafted free agent out of Florida in 2015 and was traded to the Seahawks in March.

“We are aware of the situation involving Quinton Dunbar and still gathering information,” the Seahawks said in a statement. “We will defer all further comment to league investigators and local authorities.”

Dunbar spent Thursday morning on a video conference with the Seattle media for the first time since being traded from Washington to the Seahawks in March.

“You just want to feel wanted at the end of the day. I just hope to repay them with the way I carry myself as a person,” Dunbar said on the video conference.

Quinton Dunbar and DeAndre Baker have maintained their innocence in a wild story that ended up with each NFL cornerback being accused of armed robbery.

Dunbar, who was traded to the Seattle Seahawks this offseason, made it official.

Dunbar officially pleaded not guilty to four counts of armed robbery, according to Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times. The charges came from an alleged incident in which three men, including the two NFL players, were accused of robbing guests at an illegal dice game in Miramar, Florida.

While the NFL’s conduct policy accounts for instances in which a player avoids a conviction, pleading guilty practically ensures a suspension.

Quinton Dunbar, DeAndre Baker try to make amends with teams

The NFL will still investigate Dunbar and Baker, a 2019 first-round pick of the New York Giants, regardless of what happens in the court system.

Baker was accused of pulling out a gun at the dice game last week and telling Dunbar and a third unidentified man to rob the other guests. Dunbar’s bail was set at $100,000 and Baker’s was set at $200,000. They both made bond and were released.

There are messes for each player to clean up with their respective teams. Dunbar apologized to the Seahawks on an Instagram post for unnecessary distractions. The New York Post said Baker asked the Giants’ vice president of security that his apologies be relayed to teammates and general manager Dave Gettleman. He has been asked to stay away from virtual team meetings.

Baker, Dunbar face multiple charges

Whatever happens legally, the story will be far from over for the cornerbacks.

Their teams and the NFL will have their say when the legal system is done. Baker faces four charges of armed robbery with a firearm and four counts of aggravated assault with a firearm. Dunbar faces four charges of armed robbery.

Dunbar just joined the Seahawks this offseason after a trade with the Washington Redskins. His not guilty plea is just the first step of many.

The attorney for Seattle Seahawks cornerback Quinton Dunbar is claiming his client was never at a cookout at a Florida home where an armed robbery allegedly unfolded.

Michael Grieco tweeted Wednesday night: “If, according to the accusers, our client Quinton Dunbar lost a bunch of money earlier in the week at some gambling party (suggesting he had motive)..why did the organizer text Dunbar about not knowing about the prior party and what went down? Answer: because he wasn’t there. So, did the ‘victims’ accuse the wrong guy of robbery or did they fabricate this motive just like they did the whole rest of the case? Good thing I can account for Quinton’s whereabouts all 3 days prior to the alleged robbery for good measure.”

Grieco included a screenshot of a text from organizer, which said: “You missed some good money yesterday bro dolphin players Dre baker even beat him we beat him out of 10k on the game and then it’s was shooting dice bout another 60k out there”

Dunbar and New York Giants cornerback DeAndre Baker were allegedly attending the cookout last week when a fight broke out, and Baker purportedly pulled out a handgun, according to the warrant. Baker, Dunbar and two other men allegedly began robbing people of thousands of dollars, watches and other valuables, witnesses told investigators.

Baker’s lawyer said Tuesday his client was playing video games when the crime occurred.

Patrick Patel, one of the second-year NFL player’s attorneys, told the New York Post that his client was in a different room when the incident at the home in Miramar occurred.

“Far from an individual who’s going somewhere with an alleged intent to rob somebody, an armed robbery, to go there and hook up his ‘Madden’ game, play the game for over an hour and then leave it there and go home,” Patel told the newspaper.

Dunbar is charged with four felony counts of armed robbery. The Seahawks defender posted a $100,000 bond.

Baker posted a $200,000 bond after a Zoom hearing with Broward Circuit Judge Michael Davis. The New York Giants defender is charged with four counts of armed robbery with a firearm and four counts of aggravated assault with a firearm in the incident.

Former NBA player J.J. Hickson, allegedly broke into the Georgia home of a teen and brutally beat him before stealing his stash of belongings and cash worth $100,000, reports the Daily Mail.

The 29-year-old NBA baller reportedly made more than $26 million over the course of his career, but police charged Hickson with armed robbery and for the brutal assault of a 17-year-old that was so severe that the boy was left with broken bones.

“The victim was beat up pretty good and they took some personal items from the residence,” said Captain John Kennedy from the Coweta County Sheriff department where Hickson is being held in the Coweta County jail without bond.

Hickson is said to have attacked the teen after entering the home through a side door. He shielded his face and head so he would be recognizable. But police were still able to locate him.

“And at that point in time through the help of a canvass we were able to identify a suspect and a suspect vehicle. We were able to identify a suspect from that.” According to a Sheriff’s spokesperson, two people were “involved” in the attempted robbery, however, only Hickson faces charges.

The violent home invasion happened in Senoia, Georgia. Hickson is awaiting trial. There is no word on why the teen was targeted.

Some say Hickson had a promising career but he never turned out to be the superstar that the Cleveland Cavaliers intended him to be when he was drafted in 2008. Hickson played for the Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers, Denver Nuggets and Washington Wizards during eight NBA seasons.

Last year he played in the Lebanese Basketball League.
