Last October, Los Angeles Rams WR Demarcus Robinson called police who were dispatched to hotel in the Hollywood area where the NFL player said he was the victim of an armed robbery.

Law enforcement sources told TMZ Sports  officers responded to calls of a robbery outside a Los Angeles area hotel just after midnight.

Cops were told two men approached the 29-year-old Los Angles Rams WR, pointed firearms at him  and demanded he hand over his valuables — which included a pricey watch.

Demarcus Robinson apparently obliged and the thieves took off. Thankfully, the wideout didn’t face any injuries despite the circumstances.

Police launched an investigation into the matter but as of now, no arrests have been made.

Los Angeles Rams WR Demarcus Robinson Suing LA Hotel After Robbery

Now several months after the robbery, TMZ is reporting Robinson is suing the L.A.-area hotel after he says the establishment didn’t do enough to protect him during a terrifying robbery in its lobby last year.

The 29-year-old claimed in a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles County last week that the incident happened at the Lexen Hotel in North Hollywood at around midnight on Oct. 20, 2023.

Robinson claims he entered the facility through a side entrance after pulling into the parking garage  but when he made his way into the lobby, two masked men pulled guns on him and threatened to murder him.

In the suit, Robinson says the men took nearly $150,000 worth of stuff off of his person during the encounter, including a luxury diamond watch and two diamond chains.

Demarcus Robinson claims the hotel didn’t have security guards outside the hotel or in the lobby — adding that employees who were working at the front desk at the time didn’t call authorities until after the suspects had fled the area

The Los Angeles Rams WR is  suing the place for negligence and more, seeking at least $149,500 in damages plus punitives according to the TMZ report.

Robinson played in 16 regular season games for the Rams this year. He also logged snaps in the team’s lone playoff game earlier this month against the Lions, recording three catches for 44 yards.

Robinson did it all despite saying in his suit he suffered “an emotional toll” from the October incident at the hotel.After battling through injuries, the Los Angeles Rams wide receiver finished the 2023 season with 26 catches for 371 yards and four touchdowns.

Robinson spent the first part of his NFL career with the Kansas City Chiefs where he won a Super Bowl in 2018 when the Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers.
