AB is a wanted man for attempted murder over this incident.
Miami authorities are reportedly seeking out former NFL player Antonio Brown to arrest him on the charge of attempted murder with a firearm, according to the Washington Post. The charge is related to an altercation at a Miami boxing event in May.
A warrant obtained by the Washington Post calls for Brown to post $10,000 bond and stay under house arrest until a trial. The warrant was signed by a judge on Wednesday, but attempts to reach Brown on Thursday evening were not successful, per the Washington Post.
The incident took place May 16, with police responding around midnight after receiving an alert from a gunshot detection system.
Per the warrant, an off-duty officer working security at the event told police that he saw Brown involved in a physical altercation with a man. Witnesses told police that Brown was the shooter. Brown did not have a weapon on him when he was patted down, but police did find two used shell casings and an empty gun holster.
In a post on X the next day, Brown claimed that he had been "jumped" by people trying to steal his jewelry. Brown was seen being led away by police in handcuffs, but the former wide receiver said that he was just being detained to share his account with police and that he was not arrested. Brown returned to the event after being released.
However, per the warrant, police found video footage that seemingly showed Brown punching another person and sparking a fight, with the footage later appearing to show Brown grabbing the gun of a security officer and running back to the person he had initially hit. Cell phone footage captures two gunshots as Brown approached victim, with the victim ducking.
The alleged victim, who said that he had known Brown since 2022, told police five days later that Brown ran toward him with the gun and shot at him twice, potentially grazing his neck, per the warrant. The two fought over the gun until police arrived, at which point Brown walked away. The victim was treated at the hospital.
Brown, a seven-time Pro Bowler with a bevy of off-field issues, last played in the NFL in 2021, for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, infamously ripping off his pads and leaving the team in the middle of a game.
In the years since, he has run into a number of legal issues. Less than a year after his last NFL game, Brown paid out $1.2 million to a moving truck driver, after assaulting the driver in 2020. He was charged with domestic violence two months later, though the charges were later dropped. In 2023, he was arrested for failing to make his child support payments.
In addition to his legal troubles, Brown also cratered a National Arena League franchise in 2023 and filed for bankruptcy last year.
