Shannon Brown
Shannon Brown played nine seasons in the NBA, winning two championships with the Los Angeles Lakers. Now he faces charges after being accused of shooting at two people with a rifle according to police.
The two people Brown allegedly shot at were looking at homes for sale on May 2. Brown was arrested on a charge of aggravated assault and has since been released after posting bond. According to Brown, he thought the couple was trying to break into his home in Tyrone, Georgia.
The couple said that they were looking at houses in the area, saw that there was a for sale sign outside of Brown’s home and that the door was open. When they went into the house, they announced their intentions to tour the home. “They stated that they heard a voice acknowledge them and once inside, at some point, Mr. Brown came from upstairs with a rifle and detained them,” said Lt. Philip Nelson.
No one was injured in the altercation and according to police, Brown’s house is for sale.
