Embattled former NFL star Antonio Brown is a wanted man after a shooting that followed a celebrity boxing event in Florida last month, according to reports.

The ex-wide receiver, who played for four different NFL teams over 11 years, is now being sought by police after a scuffle turned violent as he left Adin Ross’ Brand Risk kickboxing event on May 17.

Brown was purportedly seen fleeing the scene with a gun in his hand in video obtained by TMZ.

He was detained by cops during the brawl, but ultimately let go after about 20 minutes, TMZ reported at the time.

After the incident, Brown took to X to claim he was the victim.

“I was jumped by multiple individuals who tried to steal my jewelry and cause physical harm to me,” he said. “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.”

But now, a man has come forward to police claiming that Brown shot at him during the altercation, according to the Washington Post. As a result, cops want to take Brown in.

Brown, a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump who campaigned for the then-candidate in 2024, has not played a down in the NFL since ripping off his Tampa Bay Buccaneers uniform during a game against the New York Jets and storming off the field.
