Edwin Dewees arrested and charged!

By KING JB

Former UFC fighter, Edwin Dewees Jr. (37-15) was arrested and charged last Thursday with two counts of child abuse after the police found his twin boys (2 years old) on the side of the road.

The Daily Courier had the details...

At 2:20 p.m., a person told an officer about two small children walking alone near Road 1 North and Cactus Wren.

The officer immediately found two 2-year-old boys, one wearing just a T-shirt, walking barefoot down Road 1 North, said Cmdr. Mark Garcia of the Chino Valley Police Department.

For nearly two hours, officers tried to find the children's home and their caretaker, but could not, Garcia said.

Dewees says that he put his two children down for a nap and then realized that they were gone when he went to wake them later. Dewees was booked into the Yavapai County Jail and his children were taken into Child Protective Services.

Dewees appeared on the Ultimate Fighter during season four of the show. He is still an active fighter, whom recently fought at Bully's Fight Night 2. He lost to Jacen Flynn via submission earlier this month via rear naked choke. I will continue to follow this story and get you more details when available.
