Video footage of a car accident allegedly involving Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice has found its way online. A dashcam camera captured the harrowing instant when two speeding sports cars crashed into four other vehicles.
In the video, a Corvette and a Lamborghini SUV were captured racing on North Central Expressway, just north of downtown around 6:20 p.m. Both vehicles lost control and collided with other cars, causing them to spin out. The footage was posted to X (formerly Twitter).
Dallas police reported that the Corvette, belonging to the 23-year-old Rice, was one of the six vehicles implicated in the accident. Authorities are reportedly currently searching for the NFL star.
In the footage of the accident scene, three men are observed walking along the highway shoulder, moving away from the vehicles before authorities arrive. It remains uncertain whether Rashee Rice was part of this group. Meanwhile, CBSSports.com reported that Rice has sought legal representation.
While on the highway, Bill Nabors witnessed the accident. According to him, the Corvette was in the left lane, while the Lamborghini was on the left shoulder. “All of a sudden I saw this flash in my driver’s side mirror,” Nabors recalled to The Dallas Morning News. “A car just flying up super fast.”
