Shocking Jon Jones bodycam footage shows UFC star threatening cop
Share this @internewscast.com

The Albuquerque Police Department has published bodycam video from a February incident, which they claim involves UFC star Jon Jones fleeing from an accident scene and later threatening a public safety aide during a phone conversation.

This video, obtained by the Albuquerque Journal, is connected to a criminal complaint against Jones, accusing him of leaving an accident scene with an unidentified woman. The complaint was filed last Tuesday in the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court.

An officer from the Albuquerque police responded to a traffic accident and found a woman in the front passenger seat of one vehicle. According to the complaint reported by the Albuquerque Journal, the woman showed clear signs of heavy intoxication and was undressed from the waist down.

The woman told the officer that Jones “was the one driving” her car and handed him the phone to speak with Jones.

Police said Jones, “the fighter,” threatened a safety aide over the phone, according to the outlet.

Jones wouldn’t answer questions about his identity from the officer, and it’s unclear exactly what was said.

The officer was heard saying Jones was “making threats” over the phone.

He “appeared to be heavily intoxicated and made statements implying his capacity to employ lethal force through third parties” to the public safety aide, the court record stated.

“My car is wrecked,” the woman added.

According to the Albuquerque Journal, Jones said during an interview with police days after the incident that the woman had left his house earlier in the day intoxicated and called him after getting in the crash.

Jones added that the person the woman handed the phone to “immediately opened the conversations with unprofessional language, which led him to doubt the legitimacy of the individual’s claim.”

The star fighter, who confirmed his retirement Saturday at the age of 37, has been charged with misdemeanor fleeing the scene of an accident, and his bond arraignment hearing is set for July 24.

Jones’ attorney denied his client was driving the car, according to the Albuquerque Journal.

It’s unclear if the situation is linked to Jones’ retirement.

UFC president Dana White did not mention the legal matter when he revealed Jones’ retirement during a press conference Saturday, saying that Tom Aspinall is the new heavyweight champion.
