Former NFL Star Antonio Brown Extradited from Dubai
Antonio Brown, the ex-NFL wide receiver, has been extradited from Dubai and will face trial in Miami on attempted murder charges. The case is related to a shooting incident outside a boxing event earlier this year.
Details of the Incident
Brown, who played most of his 12-year career with the Pittsburgh Steelers, is accused of firing two shots at a man after an altercation at an amateur boxing event on May 16 in Miami's Little Haiti neighborhood. An arrest warrant issued in June states that Brown grabbed "a black firearm from the right hip area" of a security official and then fired at the victim, identified as Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu.
Extradition and Legal Status
After the incident, Brown did not return to Florida. Authorities confirmed to NBC Miami that Brown, aged 37, was extradited from Dubai, where he allegedly tried to avoid U.S. law enforcement. He arrived in Newark, New Jersey, and was booked into Essex County Jail on Thursday. Plans to transfer him to South Florida are underway, though the exact timeline remains unknown.
Public Footage
Video footage from the May event circulated on social media, showing Brown involved in a fight. The event was hosted by streamer and internet personality Adin Ross.
