It’s been a couple of weeks of play for Antonio Brown as a Tampa Bay Buccaneer. Of course, a month couldn’t go by without a report the wide receiver was up to no good …. before he signed with Tampa Bay, of course.

Hollywood police determined it had probable cause to charge Brown with misdemeanor criminal mischief for the Oct. 15 incident, the report said. But the homeowners association president declined to press charges, according to the report, police saying she feared Brown “may retaliate against her employees.”
The incident, which had not previously been made public, was only the latest for Brown, who wassigned by Tampa Bay less than two weeks after the fracas at the luxury Hollywood Oaks development. The Hollywood police department “exceptionally cleared” the case on Nov. 5, according to the report.
