Boxer Gervonta Davis ‘is in JAIL serving his 90-day home detention sentence’

Gervonta Davis has reportedly been ordered to serve the rest of his home detention sentence in jail after he was taken into custody for a hearing on Thursday.

Davis’ attorney Michael Tomko was quoted by The Baltimore Banner as confirming an ‘impromptu hearing’ on Thursday and the publication said Tomko confirmed Davis will serve the rest of his 90-day home sentence in jail.

WBAL-TV Baltimore said Davis had allegedly violated terms of his house arrest.  

Davis was sentenced May 5 following a guilty please last year over a hit-and-run crash that injured four people in 2020. 

Davis was also sentenced to serve 200 hours of community service, and will be on probation for three years.

Gervonta Davis pleaded guilty to four charges relating to a hit-and-run incident from 2020

Davis pleaded guilty in February to four offenses; leaving the scene of an accident involving bodily injury, driving with a revoked license, running a red light and failing to notify of property damage.

In the crash, four people suffered various injuries, including a pregnant woman.

Circuit Judge Althea M. Handy said in February that in pleading guilty Davis was doing so on the understanding there is ‘no agreement of what penalty will be at sentencing.’

Davis’ sentencing comes after his seventh-round knockout win over Ryan Garcia on April 22 in front of a packed Las Vegas crowd.

The pair fought at a 136-pound catchweight that saw Davis improve his professional record to 29-0.  

At approximately 2am on November 5, 2020, Davis – according to the prosecution – drove a Lamborghini under police escort after leaving a nightclub in downtown Baltimore.

At one time, he allegedly veered away from the convoy, running a red light and subsequently struck the passenger side of a 2004 Toyota Solara.

Inside was pregnant woman, Jyair Smith, alongside three other passengers. The prosecution alleged that David made eye contact with Smith but never came to her aid.
