BATTERY CHARGE

Arrest Warrant Issued for Former NFL Star Antonio Brown

Brown was released in January by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

An arrest warrant has been issued for former wide receiver Antonio Brown on a battery charge for alleged domestic violence against his ex-fiancée. Police were called to Brown’s ex-fiancée’s home Monday, where her belongings were thrown out on the street and Brown allegedly threw a shoe at her, the police report said. Police said Brown locked himself in the home, where he had two guns, and threatened to shoot his ex-fiancée if she entered the house. Brown was previously released from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Jan. 6 after running off the field during a game and throwing his shirt and gloves into the stands. Last month, he was also ordered to pay $1.2 million to a truck driver after he was arrested for assaulting the driver.
