The unidentified individual reportedly got into their car after the quarrel and drove straight for Owens, hitting the former wide receiver's knee in the process.

Terrell Owens Previously Got Into A Public Dispute With His NeighborÂ
This is not Owens' first rodeo when it comes to public disputes; in 2022, the former athlete got into a heated argument with a female neighbor of his, which caused the cops to get involved to settle the dispute.
Although no arrest was made, TMZ said "both parties had to be separated" to resolve the fight. The woman at the time reportedly yelled at Owens when the cops arrived, "You're a Black man approaching a white woman!
The footballer made sure to capture bits of the moment on his social media livestream at the time, with a video showing the cops at the scene and his neighbor narrating her grievances.
She accused the Owens of recklessly driving his car around their neighborhood, claiming that he almost hit her with it, and proceeded to step down from the vehicle to "intimidate her."
Owens denied the claims, stating that he only got out of the car due to the abusive words she was hurling at him and that he was driving safely.
"You don't yell at me and tell me I almost hit you, and I didn't," the athlete said to the woman in the video clip. She replied, "But you didn't have to get out of your f------ car!"
Owens then responded, "You didn't have to talk to me that way, either! Karen!" and the neighbor replied, "You're a Black man approaching a white woman!"
