The former Lakers star was arrested in 2020 after two people claimed he fired a gun at them in an open house visit. A police spokesperson says the two individuals claim they were out searching for houses in the Tyrone, GA area when they saw one with a “For Sale” sign on it.
“Officers say the individuals entered through an open gate … and say the two people claim when they got to the door, they were told to come in.
The police spokesperson says once the individuals were inside … they say Brown confronted them, before ultimately agreeing to let them go.
But, the two say as they were leaving … Brown fired 5 to 6 shots at them.”
Brown was selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the 2006 NBA draft and played in the league from ’06 to ’14, finishing his career with an average of 7.6 points per game.
