Former Laker Shannon Brown arrested, allegedly shot at two people

Two-time NBA champion Shannon Brown was arrested last week for allegedly shooting at two people in an open house visit, according to TMZ Sports.

The 34-year-old allegedly pulled a gun on two people in his Georgia home on May 2. The accusers were looking for a new home in the Tyrone, Georgia area and saw a "for sale" sign at Brown's house. They were told they could enter the home, and were confronted by Brown who eventually let them go unharmed.

As they were leaving the home, the accusers stated Brown shot at them five to six times and investigators found a shell casing in the area, prompting them to arrest Brown on aggravated assault charges.

Brown was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers 25th overall in 2006, and spent time with the Los Angeles Lakers, Phoenix Suns, Charlotte Hornets, New York Knicks, San Antonio Spurs, Chicago Bulls and Miami Heat.

In 12 seasons he averaged 7.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game while shooting 42.0 percent from the field and 33.2 percent from beyond the arc.
