Giants Fan Allegedly Threatens Gillette Stadium After Antonio Brown Signing
Antonio Brown signing with the New England Patriots shook the NFL world, but it had an especially negative impact on one Rhode Island native.
Tobias Gray, a New York Giants fan, was arrested by East Providence police Sunday following a threatening Facebook post toward Gillette Stadium. According to the Providence Journal, Gray also threatened an officer while being arrested.
The 44-year-old was arraigned Monday morning in Providence District Court, in addition to facing a felony domestic assault charge and a separate charge for threatening the East Providence police officer.
The Facebook post allegedly involved Gray threatening to commit a shooting at Gillette Stadium after the Patriots signed the All-Pro wide receiver, per the Providence Journal. It since has been deleted.
The Patriots signed Brown to a one-year deal just one day before defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers in their season opener at Gillette Stadium.
