It's official, Luke Sky Walker has joined the Dark Side...yes, this is real life.

The Carter County Sheriff's Office in Tennessee issued an arrest warrant for a 22-year-old man named...Luke Sky Walker. Sky Walker is wanted for a property theft over $1,000, according to WTSP. I can see it now, Luke Sky Walker arrested, and walking past jail cells while the "Imperial March" plays in the background.

The funny thing here is that the REAL Luke Skywalker, Mark Hamill saw the news story and threw his two cents in...

Apparently, this isn't the first time that Walker has been in trouble with the law. Last year, he was arrested for violating his probation from a theft charge.

I believe I have an answer as to Mr. Hamill's statement. This is nothing more than a case of a "Boy Named Sue." You know, the song by Johnny Cash? There's a line in the song that may explain why Walker's parent's named him Luke Sky Walker.

"Son, this world is rough
And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough
And I know I wouldn't be there to help ya along
So I give ya that name and I said goodbye
I knew you'd have to get tough or die
And it's the name that helped to make you strong"

That sounds like a logical reason...I just think that his parents were hoping that he would become a brave Jedi...not give into the Dark Side. Use the Force for good, not bad, Luke! Either way, perhaps there will be "A New Hope" for young Sky Walker, and he changes his evil ways.

Oh, and I should mention that Hamill found out about Walker's second arrest too...
