MEXICO. (THECOUNT) — Former UFC veteran, Phil “New York Badass” Baroni, has been arrested in connection to the death of his girlfriend while visiting Mexico.
The former MMA fighter and boxer, 46, was in San Pancho, Mexico, when he was arrested and charged with murder of his girlfriend.
Baroni got into an argument with his 46-year-old girlfriend, “Paola,” after she revealed she had cheated on him. Baroni then allegedly threw her into the shower after she refused to take one, which caused her to fall and hit her head. Baroni claims he helped her back to bed, then left the room to get her cigarettes and beer upon her request. When he came back into the room, the woman was unconscious, according to Comingsoon.
Baroni alerted police, who found his girlfriend lying on the bed covered in a sheet with no vital signs. Bruises on her face and body indicate she was assaulted.
An autopsy will be held to figure out the cause of death.
