Diamond Crushed on Prosecutor Report

Diamond Foods (DMND) fell 9.2% after hours as the Wall Street Journal reportedthat prosecutors have opened an investigation into payments the company made to walnut growers. The probe could result in criminal charges, the Journal notes, and could undo the company’s deal to buy Pringles from Procter & Gamble (PG).
The SEC has already been looking into the payments, and will coordinate with the U.S. Attorney’s office in San Francisco. The company is also conducting an internal inquiry.
