Antonio Brown is back in the headlines. The former NFL wideout was reportedly arrested on an attempted murder charge linked to a shooting after a celebrity boxing event in Miami. The news broke on Thursday as Brown was booked in the Essex County Jail in New Jersey. Now, he would soon be transported to Miami to face charges. Reports say this all traces back to an incident from May at influencer Adin Ross’s boxing event. Brown is expected to face trial over what happened that night. According to The Washington Post, the warrant required him to post a $10,000 bond and stay under house arrest until the hearing. However, Brown never showed up to surrender. But now, Brown himself broke that silence. Taking to X, he shared, “Handed over the keys to the socials and CTESPN to my team while I go through this fight for my innocence. Happy to showcase love & entertainment. All love & respect to everyone for the support.” Back in May, witnesses claimed they saw him with a gun after a heated fight. A video from the event showed him in a scuffle before running with a firearm in hand. Moments later, gunshots echoed through the scene, sending the crowd into panic. After that chaos, Brown went online again to clear the air. “Police temporarily detained me until they received my side of the story and then released me. I WENT HOME THAT NIGHT AND WAS NOT ARRESTED,” he wrote. He also added that he was “jumped by multiple individuals who tried to steal my jewelry and cause physical harm to me.” Read Top Stories First From EssentiallySports Click here and check box next to EssentiallySports Whether this latest arrest will end differently remains to be seen, but one thing’s certain: Antonio Brown’s fight is far from over.
