Gervonta Davis: UFC News: Baltimore boxing champion Gervonta Davis was given a 90-day house arrest term on Friday along with 200 hours of community service for a hit-and-run accident that injured four people in November 2020. Follow UFC News Updates with InsideSport.IN.
In addition, he will have three years of probation following his home arrest.
In February, Davis entered a guilty plea to four charges: leaving the scene of an accident involving bodily harm, failing to report property damage to the owner, operating a vehicle with a suspended licence and running a red light.
The allegations are related to an incident that happened early on November 5, 2020.
Why is Tank Davis Arrested?
Following a collision in 2020 involving a car carrying four people, including a pregnant woman, and a Lamborghini Urus, Davis admitted to fleeing police.
Around 2:00 that morning, Davis allegedly exited the Medusa Restaurant & Lounge in downtown Baltimore and got into a Lamborghini.
He ran a red light at the intersection of Washington Boulevard and the city road, striking the passenger side of a 2004 Toyota Solara. Davis escaped before the Toyota’s four occupants were treated for cuts, bruises, and sprains at the hospital.
By examining footage from CitiWatch, red light, and private security cameras in the vicinity of the collision, investigators were able to piece together the boxer’s actions that morning.
Before police could intervene, all three of them fled the scene.
The fighter made a guilty plea and was given a 60-day sentence of house detention without supervision.

Four passengers in the second car were brought to a local hospital for treatment, although it was reported that their injuries weren’t life-threatening.
Days after Davis successfully defended his WBA Lightweight Championship, the crash took place. Social media users shared flyers about Davis’ celebration earlier that evening at a club in Baltimore.
He left the club less than 30 minutes prior to the crash, according to a law enforcement source.
With 27 knockouts, Davis has a perfect 29-0 boxing record.
His most recent fight, a highly anticipated lightweight contest against Ryan Garcia two weeks ago, was held in T-Mobile Arena in front of 20,842 fans. Garcia was defeated by Davis in the seventh round through knockout.
