The pregnant woman in her 20s was taken to hospital with
minor injuries, the Albuquerque Police Department said. The
accident occurred near an intersection in the southeast of the
city.
"Officers attempted to contact Mr. Jones at his residence Sunday
evening, but were unsuccessful," the police department said in a
statement. "We have also reached out to his lawyer, but as of
now, have not heard back."
Jones, 27, has been the Ultimate Fighting Championship
light-heavyweight champion since 2011.
His agency, First Round Management, did not immediately respond
to a request for comment, nor did a Las Vegas lawyer named in
previous media coverage as Jones' attorney.
In 2012 Jones was arrested and charged with driving under the
influence of alcohol after crashing into a telephone pole in New
Jersey. He was fined and his license was suspended for six
months, according to media reports at the time.
