Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown was taken into custody on attempted murder charges, according to TMZ Sports. Authorities confirmed that Brown, who last played for the Pittsburgh Steelers, had been wanted for several months.
The charges stem from a May incident during a boxing event hosted by content creator Adin Ross.
