Things continue to look worse for Jon Jones.
The former UFC light heavyweight champion was stripped of his title and suspended indefinitely after he was arrested for his alleged involvement in a hit-and-run accident in late April. Jones is facing a felony charge for fleeing the scene on foot after he allegedly ran a red light and hit a car being driven by a 25-year-old pregnant woman.
Now, MMA Digest has obtained audio from the 911 call, as well as video footage from the scene of the crash.
The 911 caller informed police dispatch that the driver of the SUV — later identified as Jones — bolted from the scene and ran over fences to get into a nearby gated community. The video also shows police officers discovering Jones’ identity while searching his car. Police found cash, condoms, paperwork from the Nevada Athletic Commission, a marijuana pipe, marijuana and several pairs of MMA shorts, as well as paperwork that linked the vehicle to Jones.
Warning: Video contains explicit language.
Jones, who turned himself into police the day after the accident, could serve three years in prison if he’s convicted of the felony charge.
