It was only a matter when, not if the 911 call made to authorities about Antonio Brown allegedly attacking a moving truck and its driver outside of his Florida home was released.
To recap, Brown stands accused of physically assaulting a moving truck driver and throwing rocks at his truck after refusing to pay the $4,000 moving bill the driver was trying to collect for the moving truck company.
There is a warrant for Brown’s arrest for felony battery and burglary after allegedly unloading items from the truck, items that did not belong to him, without paying the full amount owed.
The 31-year-old Brown then locked himself inside his house, refusing to cooperate with law enforcement, and tweeting out new rap singles and the claim that “they” want to slander his name.
They want my name slandered

Brown’s trainer Glenn Holt has already been arrested by Hollywood Police and charged with felony burglary with assault or battery.

On Thursday, the approximately 30-minute long 911 call became public and TMZ Sports obtained a copy where the moving truck driver is heard to say, “The guy is high, he smoked, he threatened me. He’s trying to fight, he throws stones at my truck.”
The caller goes on to add, “I’m trying to make delivery to the gentleman. I called him and told him he has to pay the balance for us to unload. I showed him his stuff. Opened the door. The guy refused to pay in the proper form… He threatened me. He tried to fight.”
“You believe he’s on something?” asked the 911 dispatcher.
“Oh, absolutely,” he replied.”He smoked in front of me.”
The caller tells dispatch Brown was SUPER aggressive during the incident … ripping his shirt and causing him bruising and an injured shoulder.
The caller also says Brown and his friends forcibly took his keys and opened the back of his truck … and began “destroying” the contents — some of which did not belong to AB.
“They are running like crazy,” the driver says.
Following the incident, Brown’s ex-girlfriend and mother of his children Chelsie Kyriss wrote an emotional post on Instagram in which she states, among other things, “Unfortunately, it seems Antonio has made questionable choices and continues to ignore the advice of those who love and support him.”
She also added that she hopes Brown “will get help and seek the mental health treatment that he so desperately needs.”
