A former UFC fighter was arrested and taken into police custody on alleged gun violence charges. There are many personalities both past and present to have competed under the UFC banner, but not many of them have been in trouble with the police due to gun violence. That was the case for former light heavyweight Vinny Magalhaes after he was arrested last week. Authorities received domestic violence reports at a private residence in Las Vegas. After turning up, they were told Magalhaes threatened several family members with a firearm, though nobody has reported any injuries. The Brazilian was later detained and is being charged with three counts of assault with a deadly weapon.
