UFC Flyweight contender Ashlee Evans Smith was accused of stealing a basket of medical supplies. However, Smith has come out and explained that it was a confusion that led to the fiasco.
Ashlee and her boyfriend had contacted Selina Cohen, a nurse by profession, regarding a dresser that the latter was donating. The two were supposed to pick up the dresser from Cohen’s door. However, they also picked up a basket full of medical supplies. Selina accused them of stealing these supplies.
Smith spoke to Ariel Helwani on Thursday and explained her side of the story. She accepted the fact that she and her boyfriend had taken away the basket. However, she said that they didn’t look into it and hence didn’t knew what was inside. Both of them were under the impression that the basket was up for donation as well.

“Honestly, I grabbed the basket, went to the store, did grocery shopping, drove another hour. So hours later is when I realized what was in the basket,” said Smith. She added that as soon as she realized what was in the basket she gave it back to the owner.
“When we realized what was in the basket, I messaged that woman Carmen and said I will gladly give these items back. I’m not a thief and I’m not going to steal from medical workers that are risking their lives. That’s it,” she added.
