Dallas police are searching for Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice after a vehicle registered/leased to him was involved in a six car “major accident” on Saturday, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Per the report, Rice’s involvement in the accident remains unclear but the vehicle is registered/leased in his name, so police are attempting to get in contact with the wide out, who is from the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
A Dallas police spokeswoman told the Dallas Morning News that a driver in a Chevrolet Corvette and a driver in a Lamborghini were speeding and both lost control of their vehicles, with the Lamborghini hitting the median wall and causing “a chain reaction collision involving four other vehicles.”
The police spokeswoman told the Morning News that occupants of the Lamborghini and the Corvette ran from the crash site. She said four people had minor injuries, including two who were taken to the hospital.
The 23-year-old Rice grew up in the Forth Worth area and played all four years of his college career in Dallas at Southern Methodist University in Dallas before being drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft.
Rice emerged as the Chiefs top receiver, finishing second on the team in receptions and receiving yards – 79 receptions for 938 yards. He also led the team with seven touchdown receptions. He also had 26 catches for 262 yards and a touchdown during the Chiefs’ four-game postseason run en route to their second straight Super Bowl championship.
