Gloves are off as prosecutor wants Tyson back in jail

FORMER world heavyweight boxing champ Mike Tyson has been charged with drug possession and driving under the influence of drugs in the US, and the Maricopa County prosecutor in Arizona says he wants to send him to prison.

“He has run out of second chances, at least in my book,” said lawyer Andrew Thomas.

Mr Tyson, 40, was charged with two felonies for drug possession and two misdemeanour counts of driving under the influence of drugs. If convicted of all four charges, he could be sentenced to between two and seven years.
