McGregor, 30, was booked into a correctional
center on suspicion of robbery and criminal mischief, according
to an arrest affidavit. The incident took place shortly after 5
a.m. (0900 GMT) on Monday.
McGregor was later released on a $125,000 bond, the Miami Herald
reported.
Samuel Rabin Jr., a Miami-based attorney representing McGregor,
said the fighter was involved in a "minor altercation involving
a cellphone" and would cooperate fully with police, the Herald
reported.
The arrest report, which did not identify McGregor by name, said
"the victim attempted to take a picture of the defendant with
his cell phone" outside a hotel.
"The defendant slapped the victim's phone out of his hand,
causing it to fall to the floor. The defendant then stomped on
the victim's phone several times, damaging it," the report said,
adding that the device was valued at $1,000.
McGregor was charged in April 2018 with three counts of assault
and one count of criminal mischief after police said he attacked
a charter bus in New York carrying UFC fighters, .
He later pleaded guilty to a reduced disorderly conduct charge.
