Manly Sea Eagles star Dylan Walker has been charged by NSW Police over an alleged assault in Sydney on Sunday night.
7NEWS understands police were called to a restaurant in Narraweena just before 9pm following reports of a fight.
Witness statements say the altercation began after a man left the venue and tried to enter the parked car of a woman he did not know.
“When confronted, the man allegedly became aggressive and was allegedly involved in a physical altercation, assaulting two men before fleeing,” police said.
Walker, 26, had left the scene but was arrested at a nearby location.
“He was charged with two counts of common assault and granted conditional bail to appear before Manly Local Court on Wednesday 18 November 2020,” police said.
Walker played seven NRL games for Manly this year, with his season cut short by an ankle injury in June.
It’s understood he has one year left on his contract with the Sea Eagles.
The former NSW State of Origin representative previously missed the start of the 2019 season after he was stood down by the NRL under its no-fault policy.
