Antonio Brown Makes Court Appearance In Pittsburgh
The former Steelers wide receiver shows up for a hearing on his McKnight Road speeding offense last year.
PITTSBURGH, PA - Former Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown returned to Pittsburgh in all likelihood for the first time since his trade to the Oakland Raiders. He was in town long enough to go to the Allegheny County Courthouse, get fined for a speeding offense and shoot an Instagram video.
Brown was cited in November for driving over 100 mph down McKnight Road in Ross hours before the Steelers game against the Carolina Panthers. Police stopped him on McKnight near McCandless Crossing.
He was a no-show in court in February when a district judge found him guilty of reckless driving but appealed the verdict. He pleaded guilty to a charge of not driving at a safe speed and was fined $25, TMZ reported.
