The police claims documented that there was a call to the residence tied to a disturbance reported by Dumas' ex-girlfriend, who is the mother of his child. The account provided was that the UFC fighter walked through an unlocked front door. Reportedly, Dumas also aggressively opened the back door of the residence and then was said to have forcefully grabbed her phone out of her hand.

The victim in this situation stated that she was talking to her current boyfriend and claimed she told Dumas to give her the phone back shortly after he snatched it. The report went on to say that the victim told Dumas he would be going to jail with Dumas, then stating he wanted a ring of hers back and tried to grab it off her finger.
