The incident stems from Brown's encounter back in May, where he was seen on camera getting into an altercation at a celebrity boxing match, per the arrest warrant. Gunshots were fired that people on the scene said came from Antonio Brown, per the arrest warrant. Details within the warrant, which was also first obtained by The Washington Post, include the following:

Officers responded to a report of gunshots being fired outside of the venue shortly before midnight May 16. When they arrived, an off-duty officer working security at the event said he left the venue after being told of the sound of gunfire, according to the warrant, and said he then observed Brown involved in a physical altercation with another man.

Patrons in the parking lot told officers that Brown was the shooter, according to the warrant, which also states that Brown had no weapon on him when officers patted him down. Investigators found two spent shell casings and an empty gun holster, according to the warrant.

Miami police detectives later obtained video footage that appears to show Brown punching another man, sparking a melee, and the footage later shows Brown appearing to take the gun of a security officer and running toward the man he had punched. According to the warrant, cellphone video captures two gunshots as Brown approaches the victim and includes the victim ducking.

Brown initially responded in the days following the incident, issuing the following statement:

"Regarding the boxing event that happened last night," Brown wrote in a post on X. "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.”
