Antonio Brown Extradited From Dubai, Held in New Jersey on Miami Attempted Murder Charge

Police cite video evidence plus witness statements alleging he seized a guard’s gun before firing at a man outside a May 16 boxing event in Miami.

Overview

  • U.S. Marshals took Brown into custody in Dubai and flew him to Essex County, New Jersey, where he is being held pending transfer to Miami-Dade County.
  • Brown is charged with attempted second-degree murder with a deadly weapon, an offense that carries a potential 15-year prison sentence and up to a $10,000 fine if convicted.
  • An arrest warrant says Brown grabbed a security officer’s handgun, chased Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, and fired two shots, with the victim reporting a possible graze to his neck.
  • The incident followed an influencer boxing event hosted by Adin Ross in Miami’s Little Haiti, where circulating videos showed a brawl and gunshots; Brown was briefly detained that night and released.
  • Court records show a June warrant offered a $10,000 bond with house arrest, but Brown did not surrender and left the country; he has publicly denied being the shooter, claiming he was attacked.
