AB eyes case dismissal, cites 'Stand Your Ground'
Former NFL star Antonio Brown filed a motion this week to dismiss the second-degree attempted murder charge against him in Miami based on Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law. The motion was filed Monday but shared with ESPN by his lawyer, Mark Eiglarsh, on Saturday.
The incident involved gunfire outside an amateur boxing match. Brown, 37, spent nearly six months in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where he traveled after the incident, before being extradited by U.S. marshals. Shortly after he arrived in Miami last month, he pleaded not guilty and was arraigned.
"Brown's use of force on May 16, 2025, was fully justified," the motion read. "Brown reasonably believed that the alleged victim intended to cause him serious harm."

Former NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown filed a motion this week to dismiss the second-degree attempted murder charge against him in Miami, citing Florida’s “stand your ground” law.
The motion was filed electronically with the 11th Judicial Circuit Court in Miami-Dade County on Thursday by Brown’s attorney, Mark Eiglarsh.
Brown is accused of snatching a handgun from a security official at a May boxing match in Miami and firing shots. Brown allegedly engaged in an altercation earlier in the night, and video appeared to capture him chasing after a man, Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu, while holding a black pistol.
