Jim Jones Cleared In FL Airport Brawl ... Cops Agree It's Self-Defense
Jim Jones' wild airport royal rumble made for plenty of bumps and bruises, but it won't be a stain on anyone's criminal record -- no one involved wants to press charges, and cops are backing Jim's version of events.
TMZ Hip Hop broke the story ... the Dipset rapper got into a 2-on-1 tussle on an escalator at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, and the scene resembled a WWE brawl spilling outside the ring!!!
According to the police report, Jones told officers the altercation started when he stood up to collect his belongings from the first class overhead compartment as the plane landed, but before it came to a complete stop. He claims that prompted a fellow passenger, James Dos Santos, to confront him and push him in the chest.
