The Palm Beach Post reports that at first the reported victim didn’t want to press charges and was hesitant to speak to police about the incident because of likely being afraid of retaliation but then did cooperate. After telling police details about the incident, the unnamed victim had a seizure, fell unconscious and was taken to St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach.

The unnamed victim told police that Brown and three others pulled up in the SUV, jumped out and punched and kicked him. He was then pulled into the SUV where Brown then reportedly put a gun in his face and told him to let go of his cellphone. Then, the SUV pulled away and he was thrown from the moving vehicle.

The victim also reported that the four teens jumped him previously at his ROTC program. Two witnesses reportedly confirmed this incident to police.
