ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Prosecutors say an Albuquerque hit-and-run case against former UFC champion fighter Jon "Bones" Jones has stalled due to a delay in obtaining records.
The Bernalillo County District Attorney's Office said Monday a deadline had passed without the state moving forward because prosecutors are still waiting on medical records for a pregnant women involved in the crash and dispatch reports.
The state had 60 days after the release of Jones to present a case to the court. Without the evidence in the records, a judge could dismiss the case.
Police say officers were told by witnesses that Jones ran from a crash in April that hospitalized the pregnant motorist but quickly came back to grab a handful of cash from his rental car.
Jones and his lawyer have not commented about the case.
