Florida judge frees Antonio Brown from house arrest, but other conditions remain

A Florida circuit judge is giving Antonio Brown a measure of freedom after his arrest last week on burglary with battery, burglary of an unoccupied conveyance and criminal mischief.

Via the Associated Press, Judge Michael Usan freed Brown from house arrest and allowed him to remove his GPS ankle monitor. Instead he will have to check in with court personnel every day.

Other conditions remain

Usan reportedly made the decision so that Brown can fulfill contractural obligations with ESPN and comedian Kevin Hart.

But the other conditions imposed during Brown’s arraignment remain: his $110,000 bail, the surrendering of his passport, submitting to a mental health evaluation and random drug tests, and giving up possession of weapons and ammunition.
