Antonio Brown responds to arrest rumors following alleged shooting at Adin Ross' event
Antonio Brown responds to arrest rumors following alleged shooting at Adin Ross' event Former Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown has just responded to the recent controversy surrounding a physical altercation he was involved in on Friday at Adin Ross' Brand Risk Promotions boxing event. Brown's appearance went viral for all the wrong reasons — as videos circulating on social media appeared to show the former receiver fending off several attackers, who were apparently after his chain — and Brown allegedly fired a firearm into the air in self-defense. Other videos appeared to show him being arrested by police after the event, but Brown took to social media to clear his name on Saturday. Here is what he had to say: "Regarding the boxing event that happened last night, 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 WENT HOME THAT NIGHT AND WAS NOT ARRESTED. I will be talking to my legal council and attorneys on pressing charges on the individuals that jumped me. I will keep you all posted step-by-step on the process. Thank you for the support and love." His comments on being detained rather than arrested are seemingly supported by his appearance on Adin Ross' podcast shortly after the incident, where he joked that CTE was to blame for him blacking out. Here at Steelers Wire, we will keep you all updated as Brown navigates the legality of the incident.

Former Steelers wide receiver arrested at Adin Ross' boxing event
Former Steelers wide receiver arrested at Adin Ross' boxing event Antonio Brown was arrested on Friday night after shots were allegedly fired following a physical altercation at Adin Ross' Brand Risk Promotions boxing event. According to reports, Brown was confronted by several men who attempted to snatch the chain off his neck — which prompted the former Steelers receiver to allegedly fire his firearm into the air in self-defense. Videos of the altercation and Brown's subsequent arrest quickly began circulating on social media — as well as his appearance on Ross' podcast shortly after. Following the chaotic situation, Brown would seemingly blame his CTE for the incident: "Yeah, I got CTE — I blacked out. I blacked out, Adin." The room burst out in laughter after his comments, but this isn't the first time Brown's mental health has been the topic of conversation. It is unknown whether Brown was simply detained following the incident, and it also remains to be seen if anything more legal will come of the situation — but we at Steelers Wire will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
