Logan Storley was arrested for sexual battery in Florida a little more than two weeks after his most recent Professional Fighters League appearance.
According to the Miami Herald, Storley was arrested in Key West early Monday morning after he sexually assaulted a woman in an alley. Storley was booked into Monroe Country’s (Florida) jail before being released on $50,000 bond.

A police report states that Storley met the woman at a three-story establishment called the Bull and Whistle, which includes a third level rooftop bar known as the Garden of Eden where clothing is optional.
Storley tried to dance with the woman on the second story bar, but she told detectives she “wanted to get away.” The fighter then invited the woman to the third story to “get naked,” an offer she initially declined. However, the woman eventually did go to the third floor, where she danced with another woman “in an effort to avoid” Storley, per the police report.
After the woman left the bar, Storley followed her outside and convinced her to go into an alley about a block east of the street where the Bull and Whistle is located. According to the report, Storley then got naked and sexually assaulted the woman. Employees from Teasers, a nearby strip club, witnessed the assault. When Storley attempted to flee the scene, he was caught by the strip club manager and taken to officers in the area. According to the report, Storley declined to talk to authorities without his attorney present. The woman was taken to a clinic to be examined for sexual assault. Storley’s arraignment is scheduled for June 5.
PFL Release Occurred Before Assault
The 33-year-old Storley has compiled a 19-4 professional record over the course of an MMA career that began in 2015. He last competed at PFL Sioux Falls in his home state, where he defeated Florim Zendeli in the evening’s main event on May 2. Sherdog.com confirmed with a PFL official that the promotion parted ways with Storley shortly after that event, so he was no long on the roster at the time of the sexual assault.
A four-time NCAA All-American wrestler at the University of Minnesota, Storely went 10-2 in Bellator MMA, earning notable wins over the likes of Joaquin Buckley, Neiman Gracie and Michael Page. He challenged for welterweight gold at Bellator 291, dropping a five-round verdict to Yaroslav Amosov. Prior to his release, he went 4-2 with PFL.
