Buccaneers WR Antonio Brown sued for assault and battery after altercation with moving-truck driver

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown has been sued for his role in an altercation with a moving-truck driver in January 2020.

The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in Broward County, Florida, by the driver, Anton Tumanov. Brown pleaded no contest in June to one felony burglary with battery charge and two lesser misdemeanor charges related to the incident.

Tumanov is seeking more than $30,000 in damages, with the lawsuit saying he was "met with resistance and violence" along with a refusal to pay. The suit says Tumanov suffered severe bodily injuries and mental anguish in the incident.
