Police in Las Vegas said on Monday that they will recommend to the city's district attorney that Jones be charged with one count of felony coercion and also misdemeanor counts of battery and threat to life.
The charges stem from a melee that began inside the Minxx Gentlemen's Club and escalated to a triple shooting at 5 a.m. on Feb. 19. One man was left paralyzed.
Lt. George Castro said detectives haven't determined who fired the shots that wounded three people outside the Las Vegas club during the NBA All-Star Game weekend.
Castro said the request for charges will be submitted to Clark County district attorney David Roger no later than the end of the week. Roger will be asked to consider charges against 23-year-old Jones; Robert Reid, 37, of Carson, Calif.; and Sadia Morrison, 24, of New York. Castro described Reid and Morrison as friends of Jones.
"These three people were involved in the altercation inside the club. We're still working on the shooting outside the club," Castro said.
No arrest warrants have been issued, and an investigation will continue into whether another person might have been involved and fired the shots.
