Last month, Rashee Rice, a wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs, was involved in a multi-vehicle crash in Dallas. As a result, he is currently facing serious legal trouble and a warrant was issued for his arrest. After turning himself in, he was held in the Tri-City Jail in DeSoto, Texas, but was later released on bond.
Fox 4 Kansas City reported that Rice and SMU cornerback Theodore Knox are being sued for $1 million in a Dallas County lawsuit. The plaintiffs, Irina Gromova and Edvard Petrovskiy, are seeking compensation for the injuries they sustained during the accident.According to the court document, the injuries include ‘trauma to the brain, lacerations to the face requiring stitches, multiple contusions about the body, disfigurement, internal bleeding and other internal and external injuries that may only be fully revealed over the course of medical treatment.’ Both plaintiffs were at the wheel at the moment of the crash.
