Hollywood, FL, USA (January 3, 2024) - Heavyweight Contender Jarrell Miller was apprehended in Hollywood, Florida, and charged with carjacking and burglary involving assault or battery, according to Broward Sheriff's Office records.
He was detained on a $30,000 bond and remained in custody in Fort Lauderdale as of Wednesday evening, pending a court appearance. The accusations claim that Miller attacked a car dealership employee, subsequently absconding in a recently repossessed Dodge Ram. Reports from WSVN, citing Hollywood Police, detail the altercation where Miller allegedly put the employee in a chokehold, threw him to the ground, and then took off with the truck after seizing its keys.
Miller, hailing from Brooklyn, New York, suffered a high-profile defeat to Daniel Dubois in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, via a 10th-round TKO in his recent fight. Previously, he had missed a significant opportunity after testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs before a scheduled match against then-heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua in June 2019.
