Kansas City Chiefs superfan ordered to pay $10.8m to bank worker after admitting robberies
An NFL superfan known as ‘ChiefsAholic’ has been ordered to pay a bank cashier $10.8 million (£8.5m) – though lawyers have warned they may never receive the cash.
Xaviar Michael Bubudar, 29, is well-known for attending Kansas City Chiefs games dressed as a wolf sporting the team’s gear.
But he’s now in the spotlight for different reasons as he has been ordered to pay the huge sum to a worker he allegedly assaulted during a bank robbery.
Payton Garcia claims Bubudar assaulted her with a gun during a theft in Oklahoma in December 2022, court records show.
A judge has now ordered the 29-year-old – who has pleaded guilty to a series of bank robberies – to pay Ms Garcia $3.6m (£2.8m) for her injuries and loss of income, as well as a further $7.2m (£5.6m) in punitive damages.
