According to TMZ, Knight was taken into custody while he was in Las Vegas, and Williams was arrested while he was appearing in court on a separate charge. The duo have been accused of taking the camera from the photographer during an incident in September. Both have been charged with one count of robbery. Williams could face up to seven years in prison, while Knight could face up to 30 years because of his previous convictions.
