Former NFL star Antonio Brown was extradited from the Middle East to the United States to stand trial for a shooting that happened during an altercation outside a boxing event in Miami earlier this year, police said.

Miami Police confirmed to CBS News Miami that after serving an arrest warrant in collaboration with the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office and U.S. Marshals Service, Brown was located and apprehended in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

Brown was then extradited and booked into the Essex County Jail in New Jersey earlier on Thursday, where he was being held until his extradition to the Miami-Dade County Jail, according to Miami Police and jail records obtained by CBS News.
