Jon Jones has been cleared of criminal charges stemming from a car accident in February, according to TMZ . The State of New Mexico dropped misdemeanor charges against Jones, stating the UFC star's alibi defense was credible.

Police charged Jones in June with leaving the scene of a traffic accident. Police subsequently charged him with "use of telephone to terrify, intimidate, threaten, harass, annoy or offend." The state filed a Nolle Prosequi (dismissal) Friday in the case against Jones. MMA Fighting senior reporter Damon Martin published a snippet of the court document.

"After further investigation, the State has reason to believe the defendant's alibi defense is credible," the document reads.

"The State, therefore, dismisses the matter."
