Conor McGregor has been charged with six offenses stemming from a driving-related incident last month in Ireland.

The UFC star had his Bentley Continental GT taken away from him for a brief period of time back in March. McGrrgor was arrested for dangerous driving. The arrest took place in Dublin as many reported that McGregor was driving in a reckless fashion through the streets.

Eventually, police responded to the call, and they chased after him which then eventually led to his arrest.

Via ESPN:

“The UFC star appeared Thursday in Blanchardstown District Court and was informed he is being charged with two counts of dangerous driving, driving without a license, failure to produce a license, driving without insurance and failure to produce insurance records, a court spokesperson told ESPN.”

According to several media outlets, prosecutors read him his charges  and he did not comment on them.

McGregor is now reportedly due back in court for another hearing on the case on June 23rd.

It’s always something with this guy.
