According to a March 3 press release, University Police have charged the junior cornerback with one count each of grand larceny, possession of stolen property with intent to sell, altering serial numbers and possession of marijuana in connection to a February 6 report of larceny from a vehicle at the Central Grounds Parking Garage. The victim reported four items stolen from his vehicle valued at more than $3,400. Brown was released on a secured bond.
