A recent lawsuit filed in Dallas County involves two individuals, Edvard Petrovskiy and Irina Gromova, who claim they were injured in a car crash caused by NFL star Rashee Rice. The lawsuit seeks over $10 million in damages for the injuries sustained during the massive pileup on a Texas highway last month.
On March 30th, Rice was allegedly racing his friend Theodore Knox in a Lamborghini Urus and a Corvette when they both lost control and crashed into other innocent drivers on the roadway. Petrovskiy and Gromova allege that Rice and Knox failed to check on the victims of the crash, some of whom were severely injured, bleeding, and visibly distressed.
The plaintiffs are suing Rice and Knox for punitive damages exceeding $10 million, citing brain trauma, lacerations requiring stitches, internal bleeding, medical bills, mental anguish, property damage, and more. While Rice has not publicly commented on the lawsuit, his attorney, Royce West, stated that Rice is committed to making amends for the incident.
Both Rice and Knox are facing criminal charges, including aggravated assault, collision involving serious bodily injury, and collision involving injury. They surrendered to police last week and were subsequently released after taking mug shots.
The aftermath of the car crash involving Rashee Rice highlights the legal complexities and consequences of reckless driving behavior. As the lawsuit unfolds and the criminal charges are addressed, it remains to be seen how the legal battle will impact the lives of all parties involved.
