Former UFC fighter Anthony Smith appeared in court Wednesday after being arrested in Gretna, according to a Nebraska report. Smith, who previously fought out of Omaha, is facing domestic violence-related charges.
The court hearing focused on his initial appearance, where a judge set bond in the case. The report identified Smith as having been arrested on a charge of attempted first-degree domestic assault.
The case has drawn attention in Omaha and Gretna because of Smith’s profile in mixed martial arts and his local ties to the area. While the legal process is still at an early stage, the court appearance marked the first major public update since his arrest.
Based on the limited details available from the report, no further information about the allegations or the bond terms was immediately clear. The case is expected to continue through the Nebraska court system.
