WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis has avoided legal trouble after having domestic violence charges dropped on Tuesday. The charges stemmed from an incident on Father's Day, June 15.
Davis was arrested in Miami Beach on July 11 after allegedly assaulting his ex-girlfriend . Initial reports stated Davis was at the home of the alleged victim, the mother of Davis' two children, when a verbal altercation broke out, leading to Davis allegedly striking the ex-girlfriend in the back of the head and slapping her.
"This case was dropped as the victim is declining to prosecute per her victim attorney, Lindsey Chase, Esq. and her sentiments we directly confirmed by the Assistant State Attorney handling the prosecution," the Miami-Dade State's Attorney Office said in a statement given to TM
