A warrant has been issued for the arrest of former NFL All-Pro wide receiver Antonio Brown in Miami-Dade County (Florida).
The warrant originally reported by the Washington Post was signed by a judge on June 11th. It lists accusations of attempted murder with a firearm resulting from a non-boxing event on May 16th in Miami.
Brown and his representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment from USA Today Sports.
Brown was temporarily taken into custody after an argument in which gunshots were fired outside an event hosted by streamer Addin Ross. A video posted on social media is said to have shown Brown fighting some people and later jogging from the garage. Gunshots can be heard near the end of the video.
Brown posted an explanation of what happened on X on May 17th.
“I jumped at multiple individuals who tried to steal a gem and caused physical harm to me,” Brown wrote in part. “Contrary to the circulating of some videos, the police temporarily detained me until they received my side of the story and then released me. I went home that night and wasn’t arrested (sic).”
He did not mention the gunshot in the statement, but said he was discussing with his lawyer “accusations appealing to individuals who jumped over me.”
In a live stream a few days later, Brown told Ross he didn’t remember what happened in the argument.
“Yeah, I got a CTE, I made it black,” Brown said. “I’m black, Addin. I don’t know what happened.”
The warrant reports details that officers responded to gunshots in the area. An out-of-the-room official who worked for security said he observed Brown in an argument after being told about the gunshot.
According to the warrant, passengers in the parking lot outside the venue identified Brown as a shooter to officers, but Brown was not carrying a weapon when officers tapped him. The detective later obtained a video that appeared to show Brown having a physical altercation with another man, and later appeared to run the man with the guard’s gun.
The cell phone video shows the victim and the victim shooting, according to the warrant.
Brown was arrested in Broward County, Florida in October 2023 and allegedly failed to pay child support.
Brown spent 12 seasons in the NFL: nine Pittsburgh Steelers and nine, one with the New England Patriots and two with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Steelers traded Brown for the Raiders in Las Vegas, but he was released before he went down with the team and later signed with the Patriots.
