UFC light-heavyweight Jon Jones is currently wanted as a suspect in connection with a hit-and-run accident . Jones (left), pictured against Daniel Cormier in January, is facing a misdemeanour hit-and-run charge related to an accident involving a pregnant woman - according to Albuquerque Police Department . If Jones (left) is found to have caused the accident, he would be liable for damages to the vehicles involved and medical costs of the pregnant woman after she was taken to hospital with 'non life-threatening injuries' ‘The case has progressed and he [Jones] is now our suspect in the the hit and run that happened earlier this morning involving a pregnant female,’ Drobik said. ‘We are now definitely looking at him as a suspect.’ Jones has a history of drugs usage after he tested positive for cocaine metabolites ahead of his fight against Daniel Cormier in January. The 27-year-old underwent treatment at a drug facility as a result of testing positive for benzoylecgonine in the out-of-competition test but the substance is not on the banned list. Jones passed a similar test a week later. The UFC released a statement Sunday night that read: ‘We are aware that the Albuquerque Police Department is interested in speaking to Jon Jones regarding his possible involvement in a motor vehicle accident. ‘We are in the process of gathering facts and will reserve further comment until more information is available.’ Jones (left) is scheduled to defend his light-heavyweight title against contender Anthony Johnson on May 23 . Earlier on Sunday, the Albuquerque PD posted on social media it could not confirm Jones’ involvement in a hit-and-run incident, but stated an investigation was ongoing. Jones is currently scheduled to defend his 205-pound title against Anthony Johnson next month at UFC 187. At present the UFC has not announced any change to their card for the Las Vegas bout on May 23 - with Johnson’s manager, Glenn Robinson, telling ESPN.com that the 31-year-old has not been informed of any opponent alteration.
