This is what happens when others enable your drug addiction. The UFC going easy on him just sent him the message, don't change anything you are doing, keep using coke but just don't get caught and just turn up to the next fight. And I remember this NARC wanting to dob in pot heads and still wants to work in law enforcement. Self righteous, religious nutter of peace.

You can take the guy out of the hood but you won't get the hood out of the guy.

Yeah. Police are involved this time.
He ran a red light. Caused an accident.... and fled the scene. Cocaine found.

Not confirmed man. That's just the rumour. Sonnen said 4days ago 'mark my words this fight at ufc187 wont happen' so there must be more to it as in maybe he failed a drugs test recently and it hadn't been outed that he's out of the fight till now. Or maybe he caused a car accident all coked up

I just got done saying that UFC 187 would be an amazing card too.
Would he be able to post bail and still fight?
Just assuming things right now obviously.

Rumors?

Maybe he just spilled his creatine -

He'll be doing pitching and not the catching if jail time becomes a factor in this whole ordeal.

One of the *rumors* is that he hit a car that was being driven by a pregnant woman.
Again, unconfirmed info
-
Honestly, I think he's a better actor than fighter, anyway. He's had his run in mma, and since his exit in season 4, he can really do anything. He's not your average everyday common actor, either.

he'll get a slap on the wrist.
Remember Rampage's car chase/accident? Nothin happened to him really either

Another rumor was the car hit was being driven by Daniel Cormier.

Another rumor was Jon was hit by a car while crossing the street and it was demolished upon impact. Jones pulled the driver from the wreck and preformed a tracheostomy on the man with a large glass shard from a Mexican Coke bottle, saving his life.
This kept the man stable until emts arrived at which point Jon walked away before giving a police report.
If this is true he's a stand up guy with a good ground game.

Wow, that was truly admirable of the man. I heard the cocaine found on scene was just a result of crushed coca leaves, obviously the result of Jon rescuing a south american meter maid from a steamroller accident just minutes earlier.

I heard he hit a pregnant woman with his car then got out and eye-poked her and her unborn fetus

It's funny man, the Internet can twist some stories. I also heard that Coltrane was playing through his phones external speaker while all this was taking place, so who knows how the rumors get started. I heard he hit a pregnant woman with his car then got out and eye-poked her and her unborn fetus

I can confirm I heard this same thing verbatim.

Mirko CroCop could easily end up in L/H category ;)

I'm pretty sure Jon Jones was the one that injured Groink in the accident. Waiting for Vince G to confirm.

I really hope 187 happens so I can see Jones get knocked out

I'm reading it was pot that they found, not cocaine. He would be screwed either way though.
No charges have been filed, but the police are looking for him.

Police sketch of the crash (Jones is in vehicle 3):
(http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--uttJ8uae--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/1227793298388800404.png)
Here’s how the police report describes what happened before and after the crash:
The woman was eastbound in a Honda, crossing through the intersection of Southern Avenue SE and Juan Tabo Boulevard on a green light, when Jones’s southbound hit the Honda on the driver’s side. The impact pushed the Honda into a Toyota waiting at the red light, and that driver told police a similar account of what happened.
Witnesses and drivers from both cars said Jones (still identified as driver three) got out of his car and ran away, on to a hill, but soon returned.
Witnesses stated he slouched over and ran back to the vehicle grabbing a large hand full of cash. Witnesses stated he shoved the cash into his pants and ran north jumping the fence into Terracita. I sent officers to attempt to locate the driver of vehicle 3. The officers who attempted to look for him, were unsuccessful.
Inside the car, officers said they found a marijuana pipe with marijuana inside as well as MMA paperwork from Nevada identifying Jones. The paperwork had Jones’s phone number on it, and an officer tried calling Jones several times, according to the report. The officer left a message asking Jones to call dispatch, but Jones did not call back.

Should be simple then. All he has to do is call back dispatch and tell them a black man stole his car. This type of nonsense happens every day.

After being suspected of fleeing the scene of a hit-and-run, Jon Jones has turned himself in at 7:11 PM local time in New Mexico. After issuing a felony arrest warrent earlier in the day on Monday, April 27th, the Albuquerque Police Department has confirmed that they have taken the MMA star into custody.

Bet he took every strong diuretic he could get his hands on to try to get the drugs out of his system. Guarantee he was on combination of cocaine, booze, and weed at the time of the accident.
What a piece of shit. The former face of the UFC. His only hope is that he's stripped of his title, banned for one year, and checks himself into rehab.

Fame is a helluva drug.

So Dana White tweets 10 to 20 times a day but hasn't tweeted for the last couple days...Another scumbag who will cover for Jones...

Ya I get it...But come out and say something...Even if it isn't about Jon Jones. Why stop tweeting altogether? Jon Jones accident makes Dana White go into hiding?
-
so he left the scene when there still were doubt about if it was him, then he came back (and thus made sure everyone saw it was him) just to grab some cash (and leaving the drugs in teh car)
smart move!
why is it so hard for these people to stay out of vehicles when theyre under the influence of drugs or alcohol? it cant be much of a drug when it requires that youre in a car everytime you wanna experience it
-
So he got bailed out for $2500?

is jon still a nike poster boy
I thought he had switched to ReeBok.
That said, I can't imagine any of the aforementioned companies wanting to employ him after these past two stunts (Cocaine use + Hit/Run accident while under the influence).
Then again, big companies love to keep that proverbial carrot at the end of the stick in order to have consumers hemorrhage away their hard earned money. This felony might result in even more publicity (Bad for Jon, good for ReeBok), and they might even suggest that Jones wear a pair of ReeBok sneakers as he is brought in front of a judge. I can already see the ReeBok slogan for this one, "When taking the longest walk of your life, make sure you do so while being who you were meant to be.....ReeBok" (a spin on their "I am what I am"-slogan).
They might brush it off and keep Jon on retainer. It's such a shame, as this kid is by far the best MMA fighter in the world right now and looks to be unbeatable for the time being.

He just did a Tyson on his career. What a dumb dumb addicted mofo....such a carrer won't last long, afterwards he could smoke pot every day, but now...driving under influence....a**hole

is jon still a nike poster boy
Nike fired Jones after the brawl @ the initial Jones vs Cormier Press Conference.
As it turned out.... That firing was ok because the UFC worked out a huge deal with Reebock. But now, I bet that Reebock will immediately cease using Jon Jones name & image on their products.
Jones is a nightmare for sponsors.... and for Dana White.

From MMAjunkie
"....there’s the fact that it just happened to be a pregnant woman’s car that Jones (allegedly) hit. And the collision just happened to leave her with a broken arm. Not only did Jones (again, allegedly) take off instead of checking on the person he hurt, he did so on foot, which is not a great look for a guy so recently shown running through city streets in a Reebok ad.
But then, according to the police report, Jones returned to the scene. To check on the victim, perhaps? To wait for police and paramedics? No, it was just to grab a handful of cash. Then he ran off again, leaving behind an injured pregnant woman, a wrecked rental car filled with documents linking him to the crime, plus a pipe and some marijuana, just in case you didn’t already think his behavior seemed like that of a man who was maybe not completely sober behind the wheel.
After that, he goes incommunicado for the next day or so before finally turning himself into police, and then posting bail. Just to put a cherry on top at the end of a long, awful day, Jones’ lawyer, Vincent Ward, then appears before local news cameras to drop a gem of empathy and understanding.
“(Jones) wants to get down to training for this fight he has,” he said. “He wouldn’t want to be dealing with this right now, but he’s a great guy. He’s taking all this seriously.”
Good work, lawyer. Way to make your client seem like he’s more annoyed with the consequences of his actions than concerned for the pregnant woman he’s accused of injuring. Way to make it seem like you think he deserves credit just for not treating it all as one big joke...."

Im torn between hoping the woman will be fine and between her being permanently fucked up and able to claim Jones for every cent he aint worth.

This is an incredible turn of events. I did not think Dana would actually pull his biggest money draw from the card, strip him of his title and suspend him.
That's a strong statement and will hopefully deter other fighters from following suit.
Thinking a little off-kilter here, I wonder if Jones will feel jaded after he resolves his legal matters and considers something drastic like a move to Bellator. I don't know how many fights he has left on his contract, but imagine how much more Bellator would drop on Jones if he were to make that move. They would probably double what he makes from the UFC and pay for any legal fees to dispute his contractual obligations. Imagine the possibilities if the UFC's best fighter (undefeated and with a record of slaughtering the top fighters/legends in all of Pro MMA) decides to leave the UFC and make Bellator his home. I could see many UFC fighters following him if he does.

Not one did he get into trouble (a la Rampage), but twice!

Dana/UFC did the right thing.
ONE mishap they could spin (his crash a few years ago) but not another one that is even worse (hurting a pregnant woman and running, and having ganja in the car).
There has to be a line and now it's past that line.
