What's next for the Lightweight division?

[Master]

Devin Haney's gun charge has now been dropped.

Boxing's undisputed WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO lightweight world champion was arrested last month and booked on a felony charge of carrying a concealed weapon in a vehicle.

Police told TMZ that they initially pulled the car over due to a failure to use an indicator and an unsafe lane change.

However, Haney wasn't actually driving the vehicle.

The person who was driving then confirmed to police that there was a gun in the car.

Police searched the vehicle and indeed found a semi-automatic handgun under the driver's seat.

As nobody took ownership of the gun, Haney was arrested due to the fact that the car was registered to him.

He was released on $35,000 bail and set for a court hearing.

Devin's father/trainer Bill Haney told ESPN at the time: "It's a misunderstanding that will be solved when Devin goes to court."

Now, that is exactly what has happened.

The district attorney declined to proceed with the case after Haney appeared in court on Thursday.

"The case involving Devin Haney was declined on July 27 due to insufficient evidence," the DA's office confirmed to ESPN.
