Police and witnesses said two offenders held Walker and at least one other person at gunpoint during the robbery, Chicago broadcasters reported from the scene in the city's River North neighborhood Monday night.


Walker's agent, Mark Bartelstein, confirmed the incident took place but said he could not give specific details.


"He's OK," Bartelstein told The Associated Press. "There was a robbery. It's a scary thing. It's a terrible thing. He's trying to get himself back together. Police are there and he's getting it taken care of."

As much as I make fun of Toine and his game, or lack thereof, I'm glad he's okay. Difference between the game of basketball and the game of life. Best wishes and I hope he gathers himself together and is fine, mentally. Things like this can really mess a person up. Guess you just have to give thanks that you're still blessed the opportunity to surface the earth.
 
Being robbed at gunpoint in your own home is really ****ing scary...Even afterwards you don't want to be there..Its like having your security ripped away from you, and you cant even feel safe in your house...

Its happened to me and my gf at the time..
 
What sucks is that this is the second time he's been robbed at gunpoint.

But having it happen inside your home......that's another level of violation. Terrible.

Wow, that's scary. I can't even imagine being a part of something like that. I've got an Uncle in Jamaica who survived a home invasion where he was tied up, duck taped, and robbed. He had a huge house with security and everything, too. His security is actually who turned on him and planned the entire thing, he had to ESCAPE because they were planning to kill him (but that's another story). Being robbed is one thing, but being robbed in your home doesn't rob you of what was stolen - it robs you of ever feeling secure again and probably ever being able to trust new people who walk into your life, maybe even some of your friends/family. Scary ****, man.

This is a crazy world, and this is a testament that nothing can change the fact. Antoine Walker makes around $8.5 million every year and he was robbed in his own home. Crazy.
