Former NBA basketball player Donte Greene was arrested after attempting to rob a gas station clerk in Indiana.
The 34-year-old is charged with attempted robbery after the Goshen Police Department said he lunged at a Phillips 66 gas station clerk and demanded he “give him all the money.”
Earlier this month, cops got a call about a drunk driver in the area before they got another call about a man trying to rob a gas station clerk. The second call came from a Taco Bell connected to the same Phillips 66 gas station Greene tried to rob.
Cops showed up and arrested Greene and booked him into Elkhart County jail.
The 6-foot-11 forward is best remembered for playing under legendary coach Jim Boeheim as a freshman at Syracuse University for just one year during the 2007-08 season. He started all 35 games and led Syracuse in scoring with 17.7 points and 7.2 rebounds per game before entering the draft.
He was selected 28th overall by the Memphis Grizzlies but got traded to the Houston Rockets in the 2008 draft. Greene also played for the Boston Celtics and the Sacramento Kings.
