Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones ran into some issues with the law again earlier this year in April when he fled the scene of a hit-and-run which was allegedly caused by him. Jones returned to the crash where a pregnant woman was injured in the wreck supposedly caused by him, only to grab cash from his car and run again.<\/p>\n

Jones was missing for nearly twenty-four hours before he turned himself in to the Albuquerque police department. Jones was then arrested for on a felony hit and run charge.<\/p>\n

Now, Jones will be in front of a judge before the end of the month. “Bones” and his legal team will appear in front of Judge Charles Brown on September 29 at 8:30 AM MT at the Albuquerque’s Second Judicial District Court, according to MMA Fighting<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jones’ incident in April forced the Ultimate Fighting Championship to suspend him of his title as well as indefinitely suspend him from action.
