*Boxing star Gervonta Davis was arrested Tuesday on a domestic violence charge in Broward County Florida, and he’s now speaking out about the incident.
According to TMZ, an unidentified woman (presumed to be his baby mama) called 911 during the alleged attack and begged for help, screaming at the operator, “He’s going to kill me!”
The incident reportedly occurred at a home in Parkland, FL at around 1:25 PM.
“I need help, please!” the woman said in the call. “I’m trying to go home. I have my baby in the car, and he attacked me in front of the kid. And, now he’s messing up my tires!”

After the call disconnects, the woman calls again and tells the operator “I need to go home, I’m in danger right now!”
In a separate 911 call, the woman allegedly claimed Davis spit at her.
