Antonio Brown is wanted by Miami-Dade police on an attempted murder charge, according to a warrant obtained by The Washington Post.
The charge comes from after a shooting at a celebrity boxing match in May.
The warrant was signed by a judge and, as reported by The Washington Post, “lists a charge of attempted murder with a firearm.” It also states Brown needs to post a $10,000 bond and stay on house arrest until a trial.
Brown couldn’t be reached by The Washington Post for comment, and the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s office declined to comment.
Brown was briefly detained in May following an altercation at the boxing event, which was for streamer Adin Ross. According to The Associated Press, Miami police confirmed they responded to the are around 3 a.m. after they received an alert from the gunshot-detection system ShotSpotter.
The former NFL wide receiver shared on social media that he was “jumped by multiple individuals who tried to steal my jewelry” and physically harm him. Brown, 36, also said he would consult with his legal team about pressing charges on the people who he alleged jumped him.
Videos of the incident circulated on social media that appears to show Brown in a fight with multiple people. He was seen apparently holding a black pistol as he pursued someone. Shots could be heard off camera shortly thereafter.
According to the warrant obtained by The Washington Post, the police had video footage from the night of the altercation that shows Brown punching a man which, “sparked a melee.” The footage also allegedly shows Brown taking a gun from a security office before running toward the man he punched.
Detectives met with the alleged victim on May 21 who told police, according to the warrant, that “Brown began to run toward him with a firearm and shot at him twice, possibly grazing his neck.”
When the police arrived, Brown walked away. The victim went to an area hospital for treatment, per the warrant, and told police he’s known Brown since 2022.
