Two women hurt in Jon Jones' crash?
Two women were injured in the alleged drunk-driving crash involving UFC light heavyweight champion Jon "Bones" Jones, WBNG-TV reported Thursday.
Jones, 24, agreed to a plea deal this week to a charge of DWI after he slammed his 2012 Bentley into a telephone pole in Binghamton, N.Y., in the early hours of May 19.
According to police reports obtained by the station Wednesday, Cara Johnson, 25, and Michele Vojtisek, 25, were with Jones at the time. Vojtisek sustained bruising and cuts on her face, while Johnson suffered a bloody nose and reported shoulder pain.
Both women were treated at a local hospital.
Jones, who has two children with his fiancee, Jessie Moses, will be required to complete an alcohol abuse and dependency assessment before his June 19 sentencing. His driver's license remains suspended.
The New York native, regarded as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in mixed martial arts, won the light heavyweight belt in March 2011 and has made three successful defenses, upping his record to 16-1. He is scheduled to fight next against Dan Henderson on Sept. 1 at UFC 151.
UFC President Dana White has said the bout will proceed as scheduled despite Jones' arrest.
