When UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones was encountered a police officer early Thursday morning, it was apparently a face he recognized — officer Jason C. Brown of the Albuquerque Police Department.
At around 4:40am on March 26th Brown and another officer headed Alburquerque’s Central Street after hearing a single gun shot. On Central the officers reportedly discovered Jones in a running jeep with an unknown suspect sat on a curb close by.
According to Brown’s report, he spoke to Jones and suspected he was under the influence, so he called in DWI officer Brian Johnson to conduct sobriety tests.
