The 35-year-old was arrested on Sunday around midnight outside his home in Dania Beach, Fla., following a warrant issued by the Miami-Dade Police Department and obtained by Local 10 News.
Brown was taken into custody by the Broward County Sheriff’s Department following his arrest and has since been released on a $15,000 bond, per the local news outlet’s report.
Wiltrice Jackson claims the former wide receiver owes her nearly $31,000 in child support for their 15-year-old daughter, Antanyiah, per the outlet.
Jackson spoke to TMZ following Brown’s arrest. “I do want him arrested,” she told the outlet. “Because, right now, he’s making a mockery out of the judge, out of everything, because he feels like he’s untouchable.”
Jackson’s attorney Pascal Michel told TMZ that his client wishes for Brown to be “an involved father” and isn’t motivated by financial gain.
Rather, Jackson said that her daughter is a gifted track-and-field athlete hoping to follow in her father’s footsteps.
“By him having a daughter like an athlete like her, you would think he’d be in her corner to support her,” Jackson told TMZ, adding that Antanyiah has received interest from more than 80 schools, including the University of Miami and Oregon.
