Time for another Jon Jones update.
The police report from a three-car accident he's believed to be involved in has been made available, and it gives a clearer picture of the incident.
Jones was allegedly driving a rented Buick at the time of the incident, running a red light and striking the driver's side of a Honda driven by a 25-year-old woman. Her vehicle then ran into a third, driven by a 38-year-old man with three children in the vehicle.
That vehicle suffered only minor damage and no injuries were suffered, while the other two vehicles suffered "heavy" damage and had to be towed from the scene. The 25-year-old woman was taken to the hospital because she was pregnant and felt like she "was going to pass out."
As for Jones' fleeing of the scene, witnesses described a black male exiting the Buick, only to run back and grab a handful of cash that he then stuffed into his pants before fleeing again. An off-duty officer recognized him, and he is named in the police report. A search of the vehicle found MMA paperwork with his name on it, as well as rental car information, and a marijuana pipe with marijuana in it.
