Jon Jones was involved in a hit and run where he crashed into a pregnant woman's car, breaking her arm, and fled the scene. He apparently had marijuana in his vehicle as well. He has been suspended by the UFC, stripped of his belt, and Reebok has cancelled their endorsement deal with him. This is all coming after 2 DUIs, a positive cocaine test, and several other negative events.

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones’ legal troubles stemming from his alleged involvement in a felony hit-and-run accident that resulted in injuries to a pregnant motorist could carry serious consequences. The April 26 incident in Albuquerque, N.M. has already cost Jones his belt, a suspension, and endorsement deals, but the legal aspect of the situation could be far worse than what he's already faced from a career standpoint. Fox Sports 1 legal analyst Rob Becker outlined a bleak prognosis for the 27-year-old’s court case during a recent edition of UFC Tonight. Becker believes Jones’ legal team is likely trying to seek a plea bargain behind closed doors.
