Bad boy Mike Tyson is in trouble again in Las Vegas.
This time, however, it is just a ticket for the former heavyweight champion. Action News Reporter Rikki Cheese was in the southern part of the Valley at Monarch Estates. Sources in the upscale-gated community say that around 7:45am, Tyson drove up in a late-model black Escalade.
He went to the visitor’s gate, but instead of driving through the gate when it opened, he veered off and hit the closed resident’s gate. Tyson reportedly backed up and ripped the gate down. Metro was called, and Tyson got a ticket. He was allowed back inside the home he was there to visit.
No one was hurt, but the gate was damaged.
Tyson’s misadventures involving moving vehicles have long been documented: In 1997 he suffered broken ribs and a punctured lung when his motorcycle skidded on a Connecticut highway. And in 1988, he knocked himself unconscious when he slammed his BMW into a tree in Catskill, NY. At the time, media reports were that Tyson tried to commit suicide – an act that supposedly was sparked by a fight with his then wife Robin Givens. However, a different version of that event was once told to Fightnews by Tyson’s former trainer Kevin Rooney: “Mike wanted to go into town to buy some magazines,” he said. “It was raining out and Camille (Ewald) told him not to go because it could be dangerous. But he goes anyway. He gets in and starts the car, but its stuck in the mud. The wheels were spinning, so he floors the gas pedal. The car breaks free and it goes flying forward right into the tree in the front yard! Mike bangs his head on the steering wheel and knocks himself out. Camille, she was standing there on the front porch, she saw the whole thing and thought Mike was dead! Suicide? Nah, Mike just don’t know how to drive.”
Mike Tyson is such a jerk! Did you see him on Oprah last month, it was totally ridiculous
