UPDATED: Tyson Tomko Arrested

UPDATE: TMZ has picked up the Tomko story, labeling him as a “former WWE wrestler” and making no mention of his TNA stint. The site reports that Tomko was wanted on suspicion of robbing a CVS Pharmacy on October 10th where he allegedly threatened to attack the pharmacist unless he got several bottles of Oxycodone. The pharmacist says Tomko got away with 210 tablets.

Tomko was arrested in the bathroom of a local Chili’s and when cops arrived on the scene, Tomko has “needle marks and blood running down his arm” and had just flushed something down the toilet. He was taken into custody and told police that he had a severe drug problem.

According to the police, Tomko admitted to taking the pills and said he crushed up and melted down 178 of the Oxycodone, which he then injected. He said he didn’t threaten the pharmacist though.

His bond has been set at $7,500.
