Former NFL Star Buster Skrine ‘Fleees from Canadian Police After Failing to Appear at Fraud Trial’

Former NFL player Buster Skrine is on the run from Canadian authorities after they claimed he missed a court date in his fraud case and removed his GPS monitor.

The retired cornerback reportedly no-showed a meeting with a judge in Durham region this week after allegations of defrauding several Canadian banks with fake checks in 2023.

On Wednesday, the Durham Regional Police Service said Skrine, who had been out on bail since April 12, never showed up to the court date.

Shortly after, authorities reported that his GPS ankle bracelet had gone offline.

On Thursday, the police said they are looking to bring Skrine back and add to his charges for failing to appear and comply with his release order.
