Pittsburgh Steelers great and former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown was involved in a fight on Friday night at streamer Adin Ross' boxing event, and allegedly fired gunshots into the air after the altercation.
According to posts on X, formerly known as Twitter, Brown was allegedly jumped outside of the event but managed to fight off his attackers with the help of security.
However, the exact details behind the altercation have not been confirmed by official sources.
Brown also allegedly fired gunshots into the air in order to clear the area, although there is no direct video showing he did so. Nobody was hurt from the gunfire, thankfully.

Antonio Brown is a straight-up BADASS at @adinross BrandRisk boxing event in Miami!

Here's another video where you can hear gunshots fired, but the person firing the shots cannot be seen. Again, warning: NSFW language in the video.

It would appear, however, that Brown was released after he showed up on Ross' live stream (warning: NSFW language). It isn't clear if Brown was charged with anything.

There will likely be much more details on Saturday, but for now it would seem that Brown has avoided serious legal trouble.
Brown spent 12 years in the NFL, with nine of them coming with the Steelers, where he established himself as one of the best receivers of his generation. He eventually became disgruntled and was traded to the Raiders.
After a very brief stint with the Raiders, where he didn't play a single game before he was cut following a conflict with the team, Brown played for the New England Patriots for one season, and then the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for two seasons, winning a Super Bowl in 2020.
His career ended in controversy, though, as a disgruntled Brown jogged off the field shirtless in a game against the New York Jets in 2021, and he hasn't played since.
