Jon Jones will be headed to court this afternoon.

The UFC light heavyweight champion is due to appear before Judge Maria Dominguez at 1:30 p.m. local time at the Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court in New Mexico, according to court spokesman Camille Cordova.

Jones was booked in Bernalillo County Metro Detention Center on Monday evening on a felony charge for "leaving the scene of an accident" for his alleged involvement in a hit-and-run crash (pic) that left a pregnant woman, Vannessa Sonnenberg, with a broken arm (read the criminal complaint here).

Jones was released after posting the $2,500 bail amount only a few hours after his surrender.

Witnesses said Jones exited his vehicle and fled the scene on foot, before returning to grab a handful of cash and then again running off, according to the Albuquerque Police Department. An off-duty police officer identified Jones at the scene and a marijuana pipe with marijuana inside of it was also found in the 2015 Silver Buick SUV, Jones was driving.

KOB4 Eyewitness News was outside of the Bernalillo County Metro Detention Center as Jones was released on Monday evening (watch him evade reporters here) and asked Jones' lawyer, Vincent Ward, about his client being under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

"I am obviously not going to get into whatever conversations I've had with my client," Ward said. "We will have our day in court and I fee very confident about that. But I think what's telling is that the complaint speaks for itself; There aren't any allegations with respect to any alcohol or drug use."

More information on this coming shortly.
