A car registered to Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was allegedly involved in a major accident in Dallas on Saturday night, and now police want to bring him in for questioning.
Dallas Police sources told the Dallas Morning News that officers were looking for Rice in connection to the accident, and a police call sheet obtained by the paper also indicated authorities were searching for him. It was unclear whether Rice was personally involved in the crash or the extent of any injuries.
The Dallas Police Department did not immediately respond to The Daily Beast’s request for comment.

A police spokesperson told TMZ that a Lamborghini and Corvette were speeding in the far-left lane of the North Central Expressway before the Lamborghini lost control and hit the median, causing a pileup involving six cars.
“The occupants of the Lamborghini and the Corvette all ran from the scene without stopping to determine if anyone needed medical help or providing their information,” the department told TMZ. Two of the drivers were treated at the scene, while two others were taken to a hospital to treat minor injuries, according to TMZ.
Kayla Quinn told the Dallas Morning News she was side-swiped during the accident, and her car mirror was shattered. When she pulled over, she said she saw a group of men from the Lamborghini pull someone out of the Corvette and watched them leave the scene for a nearby train station.
“No one stopped,” Quinn told the News, saying she was headed home from the Fort Worth Zoo with her 4-year-old son. “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?”
She showed the News a video of the crash site, which included the group discussing what to do about the wreckage. Quinn said a pair of cleats was left inside the Lamborghini, and she said one of the witnesses saw the group pull out guns and bags from the cars.
Rice was listed as the Corvette’s driver on the police call sheet, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Rice, a Texas native, was drafted by the Chiefs as a second-round pick in 2023. He caught six passes and advanced 39 yards to help the Chiefs win the Super Bowl last month.
