Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown has some blazing speed on the field but evidently, sometimes he likes to show it away from the field too. According to WPXI, Brown was stopped on Thursday by police for reckless driving after being clocked going over 100 miles per hour.
According to Ross Township police, officers were out looking for a suspect of a bank robbery when Brown in a black Porsche.
When the cops pulled over Brown they cited him for reckless driving and it's unclear if it will affect his status for tonight's game. The team released the following statement:
“We are aware of the situation, but we are still gathering information. We won’t have any further comment at this time.”
This isn't the first time that Antonio Brown has been in trouble this year. After an incident in April, Brown was sued for allegedly throwing furniture of a 14th-floor balcony. According to the suit, when Brown threw the items it nearly hit a grandfather and child standing on the ground. When police arrived Brown became agitated and started to yell.
“Mr. Brown was extremely agitated, acting aggressively, and yelling at security personnel when [police] arrived to the scene,” the lawsuit reads.
The speeding incident seems minor but it's another incident that seems to question if someone needs to have a talk with Brown. Chances are, Brown will go tonight for the Steelers in their game against the Carolina Panthers and hopefully, he reserves his speed to the field from now on.
