Sports Superstar Arrested. The Allegations Are Horrific

UFC fighter Nick Diaz was arrested in Las Vegas on Thursday night for some pretty disturbing allegations.

“The UFC superstar is in custody at the Clark County Detention Center and hes been charged with felony domestic battery by strangulation as well as misdemeanor domestic battery,” TMZ said, as first reported by MMAJunkie. “The outlet reports 12 units were dispatched to the scene and the 34-year-old was combative with cops during the arrest. The alleged victim was taken to a local hospital.

And the details of this case are so horrifying that he wont even be able to post bail until Saturday morning at 9:00 AM PT. His bail was set at $18,000, but hes expected to pay it once he is permitted. (RELATED: Former MLB Player Convicted Of Domestic Violence. The Details Are Horrifying)
