Former NFL superstar wide receiver Antonio Brown turned himself in to the police on Thursday night, according to TMZ.
Antonio Brown is turning himself in … TMZ Sports has learned the NFL star just arrived at a Florida jail after police issued a warrant for his arrest earlier this week.
ESPN’s Cameron Wolfe confirmed the news.
Antonio Brown has turned himself into Broward County Jail alongside his lawyers tonight to deal with his arrest warrant. The wait is over, as @TMZ_Sports reported.

The Hollywood, FL Police Department had issued an warrant for Brown’s arrest, after Brown and his trainer, Glenn Holt, allegedly threw rocks at a moving truck and attacked the driver at Brown’s home on Tuesday. Holt was arrested and taken into custody, but Brown locked himself inside the house and refused to come out.
TMZ reports that Brown “will be facing charges of burglary with battery and burglary of an unoccupied conveyance, as well as one count of criminal mischief.”
Cops say Brown will be facing charges of burglary with battery and burglary of an unoccupied conveyance, as well as one count of criminal mischief. He’s expected to be held in custody until he faces a judge at a bond hearing Friday morning.
Brown, 31, quickly went from arguably the NFL’s best wide receiver to possibly never playing an NFL game again. And playing football is quite secondary to his current issues.
