Antonio Brown Extradited to Miami in Attempted Murder Case
Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown is being extradited to Miami to face charges related to a shooting outside a celebrity boxing event in May. Authorities confirmed he was transferred from Dubai to Miami.
Details of the Extradition
Miami Police officials stated that Brown, aged 37, was extradited Thursday from Dubai, arriving through Newark, New Jersey. Records indicate he was booked into the Essex County Jail in New Jersey the same day.
Brown’s Activities During Fleeing
While on the run, Brown posted videos from Dubai in which he appeared to taunt authorities, saying, “I'm safe here.” Miami Police, however, interpreted these videos differently, noting that he was laughing and implying that justice would be served.
A public affairs officer for the U.S. Marshals Service confirmed Brown’s arrival from Dubai earlier Thursday through Newark. Brown was booked into Essex County Jail upon his return.
Legal Charges and Incident Details
In June, a warrant was issued for Brown on a charge of attempted murder with a firearm, related to a shooting on May 16 near Northeast 2nd Avenue and 67th Street. An off-duty security officer reported hearing gunfire and seeing Brown fighting with another individual in the parking lot.
Author's summary
Antonio Brown is being extradited to Miami to face serious charges after fleeing to Dubai, demonstrating that no one is above the law regardless of fame or wealth.
