The Caledonia Gladiators have parted ways with Malik Dunbar amid serious allegations related to a shooting incident in the US
Augusta: So, the Caledonia Gladiators recently let go of Malik Dunbar, who they signed last December. They said it was due to a disciplinary issue, but it turns out there’s more to the story.
After Dunbar was released, the club found out about some serious allegations against him related to a shooting back in Augusta, Georgia. He had been named a suspect in a murder case there.
He joined the Gladiators just two months after that incident. It’s wild how things unfolded. The team also cut ties with another player, Jared Wilson-Frame, at the same time for similar reasons.
They mentioned that they had no idea about Dunbar’s past when they signed him. The club is now looking into how this all happened and what went wrong in their vetting process.
Interestingly, the agency that represented Dunbar said they weren’t aware of any allegations until they saw it in the news. It’s a messy situation for everyone involved.
