Brown has pleaded not guilty to a charge of attempted murder in connection with a shooting in May. According to an arrest warrant, the former star wide receiver was accused of grabbing a gun from a security officer and firing two shots at a man he had fought with earlier.
Eiglarsh told the bail hearing that it was Brown’s gun that was fired, a “concealed weapon,” and said the two shots he fired were not at the alleged victim, Zul-Qarnain Kwame Nantambu.

Kwame Nantambu initially told investigators he thought a bullet had grazed him, but prosecutors told the judge presiding over the bail hearing that they did not believe the alleged victim was actually hit.
Prosecutors asked for pretrial detention, maintaining that Brown was a successful NFL player with ample resources to escape, but that request was denied. Brown earned more than $80 million in his NFL career, according to Spotrac.com.
