Seahawks' Dunbar, Giants' Baker surrender to police in robbery case
New York Giants cornerback DeAndre Baker and Seattle Seahawks cornerback Quinton Dunbar turned themselves in to the Miramar Police Department in Florida on Saturday.
Baker is facing four counts of armed robbery with a firearm and four counts of aggravated assault with a firearm for an incident that took place Wednesday. Dunbar faces four counts of armed robbery with a firearm.
Baker's lawyer, Bradford Cohen, announced Saturday morning on Instagram that his client surrendered to police. Miramar PD later confirmed that Dunbar also turned himself in.
Arrest warrants for Baker and Dunbar have been out since Thursday.
Baker and Dunbar are set to be released Sunday with a $200,000 bond and a $100,000 bond, respectively, according to ESPN's Cameron Wolfe.
"Police reports are just that, reports of what was told to them or said to them. Court is what we use to then examine those reports, investigate those claims and allow the defendant an opportunity to confront the evidence," wrote Cohen. "Don't rush to judgement (sic)."
On Friday, Baker's and Dunbar's lawyers said they have witness testimony that exonerates the players of armed robbery.
Baker was the 30th overall pick in the 2019 draft, and the Seahawks acquired Dunbar in a trade with the Washington Redskins in March.
