Wrestler Charlie Tiger Arrested Again Amid Legal Troubles
New case includes accusations of terroristic threats and ethnic intimidation
Independent wrestler Charles Avedis Hutton, known as Charlie Tiger, is facing several criminal cases in Pennsylvania. His last known appearance in the ring was at Game Changer Wrestling’s Backyard Wrestling event on July 4, 2025.
In Delaware County, police allege that on July 8, 2025, Hutton made terroristic threats, committed ethnic intimidation, and harassed someone with threatening or lewd language. He was arrested on July 17 by Media Borough Police, held on $25,000 bail, and released on August 18 after posting $2,500. Court records list Hutton’s residence as homeless in this case. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for September 5 before Judge Elizabeth S. Gallard. I have reached out to officials with Media Borough Police regarding the Delaware County charges but have yet to hear back.
If convicted on all counts in the Delaware County case, Hutton could face a maximum penalty of eight years in prison and $17,500 in fines.
Earlier this year in Cumberland County, he was accused of stripping naked at a Sheetz convenience store, charging at bystanders, and using a machete to slash a parked van before fleeing. He was charged with simple assault, harassment, criminal mischief, and disorderly conduct. In that case, court records listed his residence as Narberth, Pennsylvania. The matter was transferred to the Court of Common Pleas, where he was released on $2,500 unsecured bail and is currently awaiting a pre-trial conference.
The maximum penalties for those charges in Cumberland County total five years in prison and $12,500 in fines.
In February, Hutton was arrested at an IRS office in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, after allegedly making violent threats that forced the building to be evacuated. A criminal case was opened in Camden County on February 10, 2025. Originally filed in Superior Court, the matter was remanded on May 23, 2025, to Municipal Court, where it will proceed. No sentencing has been entered.
Across both Pennsylvania cases, Hutton faces a combined maximum exposure of 13 years in prison and $30,000 in fines if convicted on all charges.
Hutton, like all defendants, is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in court. We will continue to update the news on this situation as it develops.
