Rashee Rice breaks his silence and accepts his part in the multi-car accident which left two people injured. The 23-year-old has apologised for the incident which happened on the Dallas highway involving two luxury speeding cars. A Lamborghini and a black Corvette caused a chain reaction collision damaging four other vehicles while the ‘occupants’ of the supercars ran away from the venue of the incident without caring if someone needed any ‘medical help’, a statement sent to BBC by Dallas Police states. 

While two drivers were treated at the venue of the incident for minor injuries, the other two occupants of the other vehicle with minor injuries were relocated to the hospital. Rice is suspected to be driving the black Corvette and could be punishable if proven guilty. However, nothing has been disclosed as of now but Rice has released a statement taking “full responsibility” regarding his part as he met the Dallas investigators earlier on Wednesday.
