UFC fighter Jon Jones has been accused of threatening a Drug Free Sport International sample collector and has been issued a summons for assault and "interference with communications," per an Albuquerque Police Department incident report (h/t Nolan King of MMA Junkie).
He also reportedly briefly took the woman's phone.
Aaron Bronsteter of Sportsnet reported that Jones threatened the woman's life, per the Albuquerque Police:
Aaron Bronsteter @aaronbronsteterI have received an incident report from the Albuquerque police department regarding Jon Jones and the <a href="">@ABQRAW</a> report.<br><br>It confirms that an anti-doping control officer told police that Jones, who appeared intoxicated, threatened her life and took her phone.<br><br>Story coming soon. <a href="">
"I want to address reports about me allegedly threatening a drug tester's life and taking a phone, I want to clarify that there is a video showing both drug testers leaving my home after the testing session, where we exchanged a high five and a hug. Although I was frustrated with the unprofessionalism and used profanity out of frustration it ended friendly and amicably, nothing threatening at all. I was actually celebrating a friend's birthday party at my home, and I believe it's perfectly normal to celebrate in the comfort of my own home.
"I must say, this particular tester behaved quite unprofessionally and even breached standard protocol along with HIPAA laws. Throughout my 20 years of being subjected to drug tests, I have never encountered such an incident with a DCO officer before."
According to Damon Martin of MMA Fighting, the alleged incident took place on March 30 and police filed a report on April 5. The Drug Free Sport testing agent and one of her coworkers arrived at Jones' house to retrieve a urine sample and the UFC fighter was reportedly "cooperative at first."
When Jones wasn't able to urinate, however, she said she offered to take a blood sample and he asked the pair "if they had money," threatened to sue them and picked up her phone from a table where she had put her other equipment and began recording them.
Per that report, a police officer who watched the recording said the video included Jones saying something to the effect of, "Here f--king Jerome and his girlfriend in my garage" before the video ended. The tester told police Jones then put her phone is his pocket, got in her face and said, "Why you f--king people come so early, do you know what happens to people who come to my house? ... They end up dead."
The tester told police she was "terrified" and wanted to leave before finishing the test but "was afraid Jones might hit her" if she left before doing so and couldn't call for help since he had her phone.
