Telling their version of the story, Brown’s representatives issued a statement claiming that, “Antonio’s case resulted from a misunderstanding concerning the payment of costs for the moving of Antonio’s family belongings from California to Florida.”

“After Antonio had paid the moving company the entire contracted fee for the move, the moving van driver demanded an additional fee for what [the mover] described as ‘extra time.’ While the ‘extra time’ was being discussed, several of Antonio’s friends began unloading boxes from the moving van.”

“The mover attempted to stop the unloading, claiming that some of the unloaded boxes were not Antonio’s. Every box that turned out not to include Antonio’s belongings was immediately put back on the van.”

“Nevertheless, several people, including Antonio, were charged with burglary of a conveyance and misdemeanor battery. Rather than engage in a protracted legal case, Antonio decided to resolve this matter in an expeditious manner,” the statement read.
