Reports: Bengals RB Walton charged with misdemeanor battery

Cincinnati Bengals running back Mark Walton was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery in south Florida late Friday, according to multiple reports. He posted bond and was released from Miami-Dade County jail.

Police said the charges stemmed from an argument he had with a couple at his condominium complex over his car blocking the entrance to the parking garage, the Miami Herald reported. A scuffle occurred when Walton, apparently angry the woman was recording their confrontation on her phone, took the phone from her, according to the Herald. Walton and the woman sustained scratches in the incident.

Walton, 21, played his college football at Miami and was taken by the Bengals in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He saw limited action, gaining 34 yards on 14 carries. --Field Level Media
