BREAKING NEWSChiefs star Rashee Rice gets jail sentence for fleeing Dallas car crash that left several people injured

Kansas City Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice has been sentenced to five years’ probation and 30 days of jail time over his 2024 hit-and-run crash on a Dallas highway that was captured in viral video. 

The jail term can be served at any time over the next five years, according to ESPN, which was the first outlet to report the news.  

The NFL is expected to discipline Rice, who could receive a multi-game suspension after he was seen attempting to run away from the multi-vehicle crash last year.

Rice was renting a Lamborghini sport utility vehicle that authorities said was one of two speeding sports cars that caused a chain-reaction crash on a Dallas highway.

The occupants of the Lamborghini and the other speeding vehicle — a Corvette — left without determining if anyone needed medical attention or providing their information, police said. A total of six vehicles were involved in the crash.

A spokesman for the rental company, The Classic Lifestyle, said the Lamborghini rents for about $1,750 a day and is worth about $250,000.

Police said the Corvette and Lamborghini were speeding in the far-left lane of North Central Expressway when they lost control. The Lamborghini went onto the shoulder and hit the center median wall, causing a chain-reaction collision. Four people in the other vehicles were treated for minor injuries.

After his client was seen fleeing the scene of the accident, attorney and state senator Royce West said Rice would ‘take all necessary steps to address this situation responsibly.’ 

Rice, a member of the Super Bowl LVIII-winning Chiefs team, is from the Dallas area. He played for Southern Methodist University and grew up in the Fort Worth suburb of North Richland Hills.
