Antonio Brown continues to make headlines – for the wrong reasons.On Thursday, the former multiple-time All-Pro and Pro Bowl wide receiver was arrested for attempted murder in relation to his involvement in a shooting after a boxing event in May.

As per spokesperson Mike Vega, he was in Dubai at the time of the arrest and was subsequently flown to Essex, New Jersey, to await extradition to Miami, where the crime took place.

According to his initial arrest warrant, on May 17, shortly after a boxing event head by streamer Adin Ross, Brown grabbed a handgun from a security guard and fired twice at a certain Zul-Qarnain Nantambu, whom he had had a physical altercation with. The victim said one of the bullets grazed his neck.

Adult star Alina Rose was among those in the vicinity, and she posted a video of herself seeing the former Pittsburgh Steelers star with his gun and hearing him fire shots:

Nantambu could not be found after the incident, leading to Brown’s release. Speaking to TMZ some days after, Nantambu said the attack was financially motivated – more particularly by a legal judgment stemming from when Brown stole jewelry from him while they were in Dubai to watch a Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight:

“I reminded him of the failure, and that’s when the attack happened.”

After the warrant was issued, “AB” fled the country.
