Police: Felony arrest warrant will be issued for UFC champ Jon Jones

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) light heavyweight titleholder Jon Jones may soon find himself under arrest.

That's because the Albuquerque police department is in the process of obtaining a warrant for "Bones," and have upgraded his hit-and-run charge from misdemeanor to felony, since one of the victims of his alleged involvement was left with a broken bone.

MMA Fighting correspondent Ariel Helwani has it straight from the police:

"We are working on an arrest warrant for Jon Jones. The female suffered a broken arm which has elevated the charge to Felony Leaving the Scene of an Accident. The victim's pregnancy appears to have been unaffected. We received a call from a local attorney who is representing himself as Mr. Jones' lawyer, but we haven't confirmed that."

I think it's safe to call the UFC 187 main event "in jeopardy."
