Ex-NFL star Antonio Brown engages in chaotic altercation, brandishing firearms to fend off assailants.
Rewritten Article:
In a wild turn of events, the ex-NFL star, Antonio Brown, found himself in the middle of chaos during a boxing event held by internet personality Adin Ross at Miami's Brand Risk Warehouse.
Videos circulating online show Brown engaged in a physical altercation with a gang of men he accused of attempting to steal his valuables and inflicting bodily harm. During the melee, a man believed to be a security officer attempted to protect Brown, yet the former wide receiver seemed to retaliate by kicking out at him.
Footage later emerged showing Brown brandishing an apparent firearm after the ruckus, before hurrying outside, causing spectators to scatter in fear as a few gunshots rang out.
A clip posted on social media later showed a handcuffed, topless Brown being led away by police. However, Brown insisted via his social media that he was not taken into custody, merely held for questioning until his version of the events became clear to the authorities, who then released him.
Miami police confirmed that they responded to a call around 3am and interviewed several individuals. The authorities reported no injuries or arrests, but the investigation remains ongoing[1][2][3].
Brown initially claimed on Adin Ross' livestream that he had suffered a blackout and couldn't recall the details of the incident. Later, he mentioned his run-in with the cops, saying, "They tried to take me to the movies... I didn't do nothing bro."
In a social media statement, Brown asserted, "Regarding the boxing event... I was jumped by multiple individuals who tried to steal my jewelry and cause physical harm to me. Contrary to some video circulating, Police temporarily detained me until they received my side of the story and then released me. I will be talking to my legal counsel and attorneys on pressing charges on the individuals responsible."
Brown's retired life has earned him notoriety for his outspoken remarks on social media, as he has feuded with figures like Tom Brady and Caitlin Clark. His political leanings became apparent when he spoke at a Donald Trump rally ahead of the presidential election.
