Rashee Rice is facing legal action for a high-speed car crash in Dallas. The Kansas City Chiefs receiver surrendered to police custody for his role in a multi-vehicle collision on March 30th. The Dallas Police Department issued a warrant for Rice's arrest on April 10. It's unclear if he is currently in custody.

The athlete, driving a Lamborghini, is facing one count of aggravated assault, one count of collision involving serious bodily injury, and six counts of collision involving injury.

No major injuries were reported, but two people were treated on-site and two others were taken to the hospital for evaluation. After dashcam video of the crash went viral, Rice apologized publicly for his role in the accident. "I apologize and take full responsibility for my involvement in the incident. I will cooperate with authorities and extend my sincere apologies to all affected." Knox, suspended from SMU football team, after arrest warrant issued, per The Daily Campus.
