Charlo was involved in a traffic accident in May and then attempted to flee the scene.
Former WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo (33-0, 22 KO) the prosecutor’s office brought charges of driving while intoxicated.
Charlo was reportedly involved in a traffic accident in May 2024. He crashed his Lamborghini Urus into another car and then attempted to flee the scene.
Charlo was arrested on three separate charges: driving under the influence with a blood alcohol level of more than 0.15 ppm (while the legal limit for driving in Texas is 0.08 ppm), fleeing from a police officer, and attempting to flee the scene of an accident causing damage of $200 or more.
The American boxer was subsequently released on bail of $9,500. For such offenses, Charlo could be fined $2,000, sentenced to six months in prison, or deprived of the right to drive for a year.
Jermall Charlo’s last fight was in November 2023, when he won a unanimous decision over Jose Benavidez Jr. In May 2024, the American was stripped of the WBC title following the aforementioned car accident.
