Tito Arrested for Assault in Vegas

[Fatal Catro]

Probably not, but he gave his best for the fans. With a broken back. And cancer.

I am a Tito fan, but this got me.

Gotta hear the story. He could have just ripped a phone out of someones hand right?

 

[blewgums]

Well, the important thing is that we judge him before the facts come out.

So I pronounce him guilty. And he has a big head.

The worst part is, according to Tito the woman was 131 years old.

Thats just work for next Bellator storyline. When he steps out from custody, Bonnar and the masked guy ambush him in the parking lot.

 

[Pacemaker Joe]

Its not Jones, so people will act like its no big deal.

Or nobody cares about him anymore.

Gotta hear the story. He could have just ripped a phone out of someones hand right?

Pretty much. He was being an idiot, and no doubt the woman was scared, but there's a diffence between misdemeanor assault, and what Grispi or War Machine did.

Maybe he was just making sure she was holding the phone far enough away to get his whole head in the picture?

Veteran mixed martial artist Tito Ortiz was cited for misdemeanor battery outside of a Las Vegas nightclub early Friday morning, following an alleged dispute with a woman over a cell phone.

A spokesperson for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department confirmed the citation to ESPN.com, following an initial report by TMZ.

Under Nevada law, conviction for misdemeanor battery carries a maximum penalty of six months in jail and/or $1,000 fine.

According to public information officer Laura Meltzer, police were summoned to The Cromwell hotel at approximately 1:08 a.m. local time by the victim. Ortiz, 41, allegedly grew physical in an attempt to take her phone.

"The suspect was identified as Jacob Tito Ortiz," Meltzer said. "He allegedly attempted to take the victim's cell phone, at which point she called police. The result of the incident was a citation for misdemeanor battery."

Ortiz was not placed under arrest at the time of the citation. Representatives for the former UFC champion and current Bellator MMA light heavyweight did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

There is no scheduled court date for Ortiz (18-12-1). A professional fighter since 1997, Ortiz fought once in 2015, suffering a submission loss in September to Liam McGeary for Bellator's 205-pound title. Fighting out of Huntington Beach, California, Ortiz was expected to return to the cage later this year.
