An arrest warrant has been issued in Washington State for former UFC fighter Bryan Caraway for several felony charges. Caraway was scheduled to attend a pre-trial hearing on October 3 but did now attend court.

He is being accused of insurance fraud after he reported the theft of an all-terrain vehicle from his home back in December of 2018. The WICO (Washington State Commissioner’s Office) report that after he bought the insurance policy on the vehicle, he filed a claim that it was stolen just six days later.

“He told GEICO that he bought the vehicle and contents, including helmets, a battery charger and spare tire, for $18,500 and provided a title showing his ex-girlfriend gifted it to him in January 2018,” says the WICO. 

“The investigation showed evidence that Caraway forged the title, and that the vehicle was not in fact stolen but was owned by and in possession of his ex-girlfriend. Caraway withdrew the claim, and GEICO referred the case to Kreidler’s CIU as required by state law.”

Caraway was previously in a relationship with former UFC bantamweight champion Miesha Tate which was ongoing when many fight fans were first introduced to him during his time on the 14th season of The Ultimate Fighter. It’s worth stating that in 2021, there was a legal battle between Caraway and Tate over the possessions that they had accumulated together during their 10-year relationship.

In particular, one of these assets was a Polaris RZR ATV all-terrain vehicle. It was claimed that Caraway allegedly stole the vehicle back from an ex-girlfriend that had taken it from his house, meaning that this appears to still be an on-going issue.

The 40-year old fought ten times in the UFC, leaving the promotion after consecutive losses to Cody Stamann and Pedro Munhoz before having one fight outside the UFC in China before seemingly retiring.
