Jon Jones has been named the suspect in a hit-and-run car accident in Albuquerque, N.M., according to Albuquerque Police Department spokesman Simon Drobik.

A previous report stated that the woman whose car was hit Sunday morning was middle-aged, but she's actually in her 20s and pregnant, the Albuquerque PD stated in a press release Sunday night. The woman was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

Jones is still wanted for questioning. Police attempted to reach the UFC champion at his Albuquerque home Sunday, but could not get in touch with him, according to the release. The release also stated that the APD reached out to Jones' lawyer, but have not heard back.

"Yes, he is the suspect and we're hoping that he will contact us to give us his side of the story," Drobik told MMAFighting.com.

The Albuquerque PD Department is asking Jones to reach out by calling (505) 242-2677.

Sounds like Jon is gonna need a really good lawyer..

Witnesses said the driver who started the accident exited his vehicle, then went back to grab a "large handful of cash." The man was described as African American and wearing a white shirt with dark pants. He allegedly ran north from the accident scene and hopped a fence. Officers were unable to find him.

Inside the man's vehicle, a silver Buick SUV, police found a marijuana pipe with marijuana in it and "paperwork belonging to a Jonathan Jones, which had MMA information on it from the state of Nevada," the report stated. There was also Enterprise rental car paperwork inside the vehicle. Several phone calls placed to Jones at the time were unsuccessful.

An off-duty police officer identified the man fleeing the vehicle as Jones, the MMA fighter, according to the report. The off-duty officer also described the man as wearing a white shirt with dark pants. He saw him run up a dirt hill.

The driver whose car was initially hit, a pregnant woman in her 20s, was taken to the hospital, because she felt like "she was going to pass out," the report stated. The woman said she was struck by the vehicle believed to be driven by Jones after it ran a red light. Police said Sunday that she has minor injuries.
