Nate Diaz has been charged with misdemeanor battery stemming from an alleged incident at a nightclub in Las Vegas again in August.
In accordance with on-line courtroom information obtained by MMA Preventing, Diaz was hit with the misdemeanor battery cost on Oct. 16 over an incident that allegedly happened on Aug. 24 on the Omnia nightclub in Las Vegas. TMZ first reported the information.
Diaz’s representatives didn’t reply for remark from MMA Preventing.
The cost stems from an alleged altercation on the membership the place Diaz and a few mates had been ready in line to be admitted into the Omnia nightclub inside Caesar’s Palace.
Diaz and his mates had been reportedly holding up the road when a safety guard from the Omnia approached the ex-UFC fighter to see what was occurring. The scenario turned bodily after Diaz allegedly pushed the safety guard, who then pushed him again earlier than Diaz allegedly hit the safety guard within the face with “an open proper hand.”
A video of the alleged altercation circulated again in September that exhibits Diaz shoving an individual away by the face, knocking off their glasses earlier than placing up his fingers with extra folks swooping in to de-escalate the scenario.
By the point police arrived to take care of the altercation, Diaz had already exited the property.
A misdemeanor battery cost was finally filed towards Diaz in October and the case is ongoing.
If convicted, Diaz faces a possible penalty of as much as six months in jail and fines as much as $1,000 but it surely’s extremely unlikely he’ll take care of the utmost penalty in a misdemeanor case like this.
The 39-year-old fighter was truly simply in Las Vegas this previous weekend cornering his buddy Kron Gracie at UFC 310 for his battle towards Bryce Mitchell. Diaz final appeared within the ring again in July when he gained a choice in a boxing match towards fellow UFC veteran Jorge Masvidal.
