Jones was reportedly taken into custody outside of the hotel after police located him nearby. According to the police report, Jones pulled the woman’s hair and was “irate and smashed his head onto the front hood of the LVMPD patrol vehicle,” denting the car and chipping the paint. Jones was said to have threatened a lawsuit against the police department.

Later, Jones surfaced on social media to say that he would be making some life changes. Over on his Instagram Story, he shared an image of himself working out and made a few statements in text over the photo.

“I have way too much trauma to consume alcohol, my brain simply can’t handle it anymore. I will leave alcohol in my past forever,” he wrote. “Turn this nightmare into the best thing to ever happen in my life. Now is the time to work harder than ever. What the devil means for bad, God means for good.”
