Antonio Brown Released on $25,000 Bail, Put on House Arrest in Miami Attempted Murder Case

A judge rejected prosecutors' bid to hold him without bail over concerns tied to his travel to Dubai.

Overview

  • Brown, 37, walked out of a Miami jail Thursday after posting bond and was ordered to remain on house arrest with a GPS ankle monitor.
  • He pleaded not guilty to second-degree attempted murder linked to a May 16 shooting outside an internet-celebrity boxing event in Miami.
  • Judge Mindy Glazer also required him to surrender his passport and avoid contact with alleged victim Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu.
  • An arrest warrant alleges he fired two shots after a melee, with investigators saying one bullet grazed the victim's neck.
  • Prosecutors pointed to his months in Dubai to argue he could flee, while his attorney says the trip was for business and that he acted in self-defense using his own gun without aiming at anyone.
