Heat’s Roger Mason Jr. victim of armed robbery in Miami

Miami Heat star Roger Mason Jr. was enjoying one of his team’s wins with his sister, as they ate dinner at a Miami restaurant. Unfortunately for Mason, the joy quickly turned to a scary situation when Mason and others in the restaurant were robbed at gunpoint.

Mason had his Rolex stolen during the incident along with his sister’s purse, but both items were ultimately recovered.

It is a horrifying situation to imagine, but it could have been much worse.
