MASON, Ohio -- A psychiatric evaluation and suicide watch have been ordered for a former NBA basketball player arrested after he allegedly attacked a neighbor in Warren County.

Kirk Snyder, 25, was arrested early Monday morning for aggravated burglary and felonious assault, and reportedly attacked another inmate in the Warren County Jail Monday night.  His attorney entered a plea of not guilty to the charges.

A woman called police to her home in the 5300 block of Commonwealth Drive around 3:40 a.m. Monday, according to the Warren County Sheriff's Office.  She told police she heard glass breaking downstairs and when she went to investigate a "tall assailant" pushed past her and ran upstairs.

She said the man then began beating her sleeping husband.  The attacker fled when she pulled back the hood he was wearing.

Investigators brought in a K-9 unit which led deputies to Snyder's residence, which is located on the same street.

Snyder's bond has been set at $500,000.  Prosecutors called said the violent outbursts are cause for concern, though no reason has been given for either attack.

Snyder helped the University of Nevada-Reno reach the Sweet 16 in March 2004.  He was the 16th player taken overall in the 2004 NBA draft, and played for four different NBA teams before signing with a Chinese professional team in 2008.
