In an unexpected turn of events, former UFC heavyweight champion, Jon Jones, can now breathe a sigh of relief. The American mixed martial artist has been cleared of all charges that were previously held against him. These charges were related to an incident that occurred in February where he was accused of fleeing the scene of an accident and threatening a police officer.
Legal Victory for Jon Jones
Jones was faced with severe accusations, but the New Mexico District Attorney’s office has now cleared him of any wrongdoing. The office stated that Jones had a “credible” alibi, which led to the charges being dropped. This is indeed a major legal victory for the former UFC heavyweight champion, who has had a fair share of legal troubles in the past. For more insights, visit SuperSport for additional coverage.
