Maywood police said Wednesday officials were awaiting the extradition of former NFL player Sergio Brown after he was taken into custody the day before on a first-degree murder warrant in his mother Myrtle Brown’s death.
Brown was arrested while re-entering the U.S. from Mexico at San Diego, officials said.
On Sept. 16, Brown’s relatives contacted police after they could not contact Brown or his 73-year-old mother. Both were considered missing persons.
Later a brief search of the property where Brown and his mother lived revealed his mother was lying in a creek near the Browns’ home.
In the following days, a video of Sergio Brown rambling appeared on social media claiming the death of his mother was fake news.
Maywood police said in a news release that Brown was in the process of being returned to Maywood.
