Police in Maine have arrested a 23-year-old man for the attempted burglary of the home of UFC president Dana White. Authorities received tips after video footage of the suspect was shared through social media.
In a news release, the Penobscot County Sheriff's Office said that in the early morning hours of Monday, officials received a report of an attempted burglary and responded to the property owned by White, which was occupied at the time of the incident.
White has been the president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) since 2001. The Las Vegas-based company is the largest MMA promotion company in the world and offers popular pay-per-view fighting events. According to Forbes, UFC posted its best financial year in its history in 2022, and its owner, Endeavor, is now seeking to merge with WWE to form a separate publicly traded company.
