FORT LAUDERDALE – Just times before his scheduled match in opposition to Hector Luis Garcia, boxer star Gervonta Davis was arrested in Parkland.
Davis, 28, was taken into custody Tuesday and faces a demand of battery triggering bodily harm, according to jail records.
In accordance to his arrest report, Davis struck a girl “on the proper side of her head with a closed hand type slap.”
The strike caused a smaller abrasion on the woman’s higher lip.
The arrest report did not condition what led to Davis reportedly hitting the woman. It did say that Davis and the girl did not live together.
The star boxer has been arrested numerous moments in the past several many years. In 2020, he was accused of roughing up his ex-girlfriend at a celeb basketball activity in Florida.
It is unclear if the arrest will transform ideas to phase into the ring with Garcia on January 7th in Washington D.C.
