Boxer Gervonta Davis has been sentenced to 90 days of house arrest after pleading guilty to four traffic violations in February following a hit and run in November 2020, according to several reports.
Davis must also serve 200 hours of community service and receive three years’ probation.
Davis pleaded guilty to four counts in February; leaving the scene of an accident resulting in bodily injury, driving with a revoked license, running a red light and failing to report property damage.
Four people suffered various injuries in the crash, including a pregnant woman.
District Judge Althea M. Handy said in February that when Davis pleaded guilty, he did so on the understanding that there is “no agreement as to the penalty to be imposed at sentencing.”

Gervonta Davis takes down Ryan Garcia during their catchweight bout on April 22
Davis’ conviction comes after his seventh-round knockout victory over Ryan Garcia on April 22 in front of a packed crowd in Las Vegas.
The pair fought at a catchweight of 136 pounds, with Davis improving his professional record to 29-0.
At about 2 a.m. on November 5, 2020, Davis was driving a Lamborghini under police escort after leaving a nightclub in downtown Baltimore, according to the prosecution.
At one point, he reportedly swerved away from the convoy, ran a red light and then struck the passenger side of a 2004 Toyota Solara.
Inside was a pregnant woman, Jyair Smith, along with three other passengers. The prosecution alleged that David made eye contact with Smith but never came to her aid.
