Former Bellator champion Daniel Straus suspected of stabbing a woman in the abdomen

According to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel two-time Bellator featherweight champion Daniel Straus has been arrested and charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon. Straus was booked into a Broward County, FL jail on Friday with bail set at $100,000.

Straus was told on Saturday that if he was released on bond he was to have no contact with the alleged victim in this case. He was also instructed not to possess weapons or ammunition of any kind.

Citing a police affidavit MMA Junkie reports that Straus’ arrest stems from an incident in which a woman was struck multiple times and then stabbed with a “sharp instrument”.
