A mother recounted the terrifying experience of a six-vehicle accident in Dallas on Saturday, allegedly involving Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice.
27-year-old Kayla Quinn described how her 4-year-old son was left shaking and crying after their car was side-swiped on the driver’s side while driving home from the Fort Worth Zoo on the North Central Expressway.

Speaking to The Dallas Morning News, Quinn expressed her shock and dismay at the lack of empathy shown by those involved in the crash.
“No one stopped,” she said. “We had children, like, we had kids, you know what I’m saying? It’s the fact that there was no sympathy shown to where y’all can even have the decency to stop and check to make sure someone’s OK, someone’s alive, you know?”
Rice, what a shame man!
Couldn’t stop to make sure everyone was OK & ALIVE? #rasheerice #chiefs #nfl #nflnews #football #fullcardsweep pic.twitter.com/d7b04J2uTx

According to the Dallas Morning News, police are searching for 23-year-old Rice as the suspected driver of a Corvette that was allegedly racing a Lamborghini before the crash.
The collision resulted in four people sustaining minor injuries, with two individuals being hospitalized and two treated at the scene.
Yeah his career is over…

Witnesses reported to TMZ Sports that the drivers of the Corvette and Lamborghini fled the scene without stopping to check on anyone.
Photos obtained by TMZ show the occupants of the two cars leaving the scene while first responders attended to the victims.
“I’m just trying to keep my faith and just – you know, what is done in the dark comes to light, it’s all going to come face forward,” Quinn said. “You made it worse for yourself. You thought you got away, but y’all didn’t get away.”
“I’m just blessed that I was able to walk out of there because it could have been so much worse,” she concluded.
Dashcam footage obtained by WFAA captured the moment the speeding cars lost control and collided with several other vehicles.

Rice, a North Richland Hills native and former SMU player, has reportedly retained legal counsel, according to CBS Sports’ Josina Anderson.
I’m told #Chiefs WR Rashee Rice has retained counsel, per source.
Separately, a release on the incident is expected sometime tomorrow.

The 23-year-old, who won a Super Bowl with the Chiefs and set a rookie postseason reception record last year, was selected by Kansas City in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
Needless to say, Rice is most likely in big trouble. What effect his alleged involvement in the reckless incident will have on his promising NFL career remains to be seen – but it can’t be good.
We’ll keep you updated as the investigation continues…
