PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Rhode Island State Police say a former boxer whose father was convicted in a mob killing has been arrested on charges of violating his bail and a protective order.
Police say 43-year-old Jarrod Tillinghast, of Providence, turned himself in on Tuesday. The Providence Journal reports (https://bit.ly/2g3r9Ug ) that he was wanted for violating his ex-wife’s no-contact order. Police say that triggered a bail violation for a pending DUI charge.
His lawyer, Christopher Millea, said on Wednesday he could not immediately comment because he had not yet received a full police report. But he said they were “nothing more than allegations at this point.”
