Former Seattle Seahawks cornerback Brandon Browner was charged with attempted murder and three other felony charges following a July 8 arrest, the La Verne Police Department announced Tuesday.

Browner's other felony charges include robbery, burglary, and false imprisonment. He's also facing two misdemeanor charges of child endangerment.

Police say the 33-year-old broke into an ex-girlfriend's house and threatened to kill her when she tried to escape. He also allegedly stole a Rolex watch valued at about $20,000. The woman had a restraining order against Browner.

Browner is scheduled to be arraigned Tuesday. He faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if charged with first-degree attempted murder, and up to nine years for a second-degree charge.
