Later that day, Washington was driving past the corner of an intersection in Miami and spotted the victim standing there. According to the arrest report, Washington exited the vehicle and approached the woman, saying "why you called the police and putting charges you...better call them and drop them you know I'm on papers!"
The affidavit states he then punched the victim in the face repeatedly and "dragged her through the streets" before fleeing the scene.
Washington has been charged with violating sex offender registration requirements, aggravated battery of a pregnant person, witness tampering and battery with two or more prior convictions. He is being held at a Miami-Dade County jail. Bond for several of the charges has yet to be set as of Tuesday morning. The public defender listed as his attorney did not immediately respond to USA TODAY's request for comment.
