Iverson apparently acted stupid again:
The announcement came the same day police searched his suburban mansion and an apartment where his uncle lives, looking for a gun that Iverson was allegedly carrying the night he showed up at the apartment looking for his wife, Tawanna Iverson.
Iverson will be charged with criminal trespass, simple assault, terroristic threats and gun offenses, District Attorney Lynne Abraham said.
Police Commissioner Sylvester Johnson said he will arrange with Iverson's lawyer for the Philadelphia 76ers' guard to surrender. Johnson said that could happen as early as Thursday night.
"We had two complaints we felt were credible. Detectives did a very thorough, complete and professional investigation," Johnson said.
"I don't expect Mr. Iverson will be treated any different than anyone else," Abraham said.
Iverson, a former league MVP, was accused of going to the Cobbs Creek Court apartment complex to look for his wife and cousin, Shaun Bowman, who lives there. Neither was there, said Charles Jones, who has lived in the apartment since March.
Jones, who met with police Tuesday, told reporters Iverson had a gun when he forced his way inside the apartment early on July 3 and threatened Jones and another man.
Police said Iverson has no gun permit, nor does he have a gun registered in Pennsylvania.
Iverson's uncle, Gregory Iverson, was accused of accompanying Iverson to the apartment. He also was charged with criminal trespass, simple assault, terroristic threats and other offenses.
Iverson and his wife had been involved in a fight that spanned two days. At one point, Iverson threw her out of their mansion, according to tapes of a 911 call from Jones obtained by The Philadelphia Inquirer. Tawanna Iverson and another man had fled the home and were in hiding, according to the report.
Iverson and his wife of 11 months have not commented publicly.
Iverson's dazzling play on the court has made him one of the most popular NBA players, and his Sixers jersey is the league's top seller.
The charges in the gun case are just his latest problems with the law.
As a teenager, he was arrested in a Hampton, Va., bowling alley brawl in 1993 and spent four months in prison before then-Gov. Douglas Wilder granted clemency. The conviction was overturned on appeal in 1995.
In 1997, Iverson pleaded no contest to a gun charge after police near Richmond, Va., stopped a car in which he was a passenger and found a gun belonging to Iverson and two marijuana cigarettes. A marijuana-possession charge was dropped.
Iverson completed 100 hours of community service, two years of drug testing and three years' probation, after which his record was expunged.
