According to the court document, Hilton allegedly coordinated the kidnapping and robberies during a car ride in which Arnold was present. The order indicates the alleged crime was retaliation for two thefts at Arnold’s rental home in Largo, Florida. The incident is described as stemming from Arnold’s decision to “take matters into their own hands” after those robberies, with Hilton purportedly orchestrating the ambush while traveling with Arnold back from Tallahassee.
Arnold, 22, has not been charged or arrested in connection with the case, and online court records show no charges against him at this time. Police reports indicate Arnold reported two robberies at his Largo residence prior to Feb. 4, involving thefts of high-end bags, guns, jewelry, a cellphone, and about $100,000 in cash.
The Detroit Lions have not publicly commented on the development. Arnold did not respond to requests for comment, and there has been no official confirmation linking him to the charges beyond the court document mention.
