Deandre Baker and Quinton Dunbar: NFL players wanted for Florida armed robbery
Two NFL players, both cornerbacks from different teams, are wanted by the Miramar Police in Southern Florida for an armed robbery of the guests that were attending a house party in Miramar on the evening of May 13. Deandre Baker of the New York Giants and Quinton Dunbar of the Seattle Seahawks are both wanted by police and are both looking at multiple armed robbery charges, according to MSN.
Baker and Dunbar were at a cookout at a home in the Miami area on Wednesday night, playing cards and video games, when an argument started. Baker then allegedly “whipped out a semi-automatic firearm.” Baker allegedly directed two other individuals, one of them Dunbar, to then start robbing the guests.

The Miramar Police Department has issued arrest warrants for both Baker and Dunbar.
The Giants and the Seahawks have both released statements saying they are aware of the situation but won’t be commenting any further at this time.
According to their bios, the 22-year-old Baker, a 2019 Giants’ first round draft pick, had 61 total tackles and started in 15 games in his rookie year. Dunbar, 27, had 37 total tackles in 11 games with the Washington Redskins last year – which was his fifth season playing for the NFL. He was traded to Seattle in March in exchange for a fifth-round pick, and has one year left on his current deal, according to NFL.Com.
