Adrien Broner was the victim of a drive-by shooting while he was leaving a Cincinnati club recently. No one would’ve ever known about the incident had Broner not been pulled over due to a lingering arrest warrant.
When the cops pulled Broner over, they noticed that his SUV was riddled with bullets.
In the police video obtained by TMZ Sports, Broner tells cops he was targeted while leaving a bar in Cincinnati earlier that night by unknown assailants. Broner claims they shot at him because he’s rich and famous and they were jealous.
The video shows bullets struck the SUV in the driver’s side doors and back driver’s side window — as well as the roof and trunk.
Broner was driving the car — meaning the bullets came dangerously close to striking the boxer.
AB was eventually arrested that night for the warrant but was released from custody a short time later. As for the shooting, cops tell us the investigation has been closed due to lack of evidence and Broner’s refusal to work with investigators.
Broner’s unwillingness to cooperate with the authorities doesn’t come as a surprise. The crazy part of this story is his reasoning for why he was shot at.
