Conor McGregor has been arrested in Miami after allegedly smashing a fan’s phone as they tried to take pictures.
The UFC fighter, 30, has been charged with robbery and criminal mischief after being detained on Monday, authorities in the US said.
McGregor was leaving the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel at 5.20am local time when the incident allegedly took place.
A 22-year-old man attempted to take a picture of McGregor, the police report said.
Police said McGregor slapped the phone out of the man's hand and then stomped on it several times.
McGregor then grabbed the phone and left the area, the report said.
Police later found McGregor at his local address.
He was being held on $12,500 bail.
"Last evening Conor McGregor was involved in a minor altercation involving a cellphone that resulted in a call to law enforcement," Samuel J. Rabin Jr., a Miami-based attorney representing McGregor, said in a statement.
"Mr. McGregor appreciates the response of law enforcement and pledges his full cooperation."
McGregor, who's from Ireland, is the former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion and one of the biggest draws in MMA.
He returned to UFC last fall after a hiatus during which he made his boxing debut, a loss to Floyd Mayweather.
He was suspended from UFC for six months and fined $50,000 for a brawl after his loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov in October.
