Antonio Brown has been extradited from Dubai to the United States and arrested in connection with a Miami shooting case, according to the Miami Herald. Police confirmed the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers star’s arrest.
“Miami Police confirm that U.S. Marshals have apprehended Antonio Brown and that he has been extradited to the US. No date has been set for his transfer to Miami-Dade County,” said police spokesperson Mike Vega, as reported by NBC News.
Brown had been wanted for months relating to a shooting that occurred on May 16 outside an amateur boxing event in Miami's Little Haiti neighborhood. Surveillance footage showed Brown allegedly involved in a fight when multiple gunshots were fired.
At the time of the incident, Brown was briefly detained but released without charges. In June, a warrant was issued after Brown failed to surrender himself on a $10,000 bond that included house arrest.
His trial is expected to start soon, and he could face a murder charge.
Just last week, the 37-year-old posted a sponsored video on Instagram promoting the online betting site BC Game, where he was seen driving a black Lamborghini and appearing carefree.
Antonio Brown’s extradition and arrest mark a significant development in a months-long investigation into a Miami shooting incident, with trial proceedings anticipated in the near future.
