Detroit Lions star Ndamukong Suh is having the worst week ever. Suh crashed his classic 1970 Chey into a tree over the weekend. Initially reports stated that Suh told police he was trying to pass a taxicab when he lost control and crashed. He also said that no one was injured. Turns out that wasn’t exactly what went down.
Two of the people who were passengers in the car have come forward with a different version of events. There are also quotes from a third passenger who said she was actually injured in the crash and Suh wouldn’t let her seek medical attention.
The police have no plans on filing charges against Suh. Per them, the incident “doesn’t meet our threshold for investigation which is vulnerable road user, DUI, or serious trauma injury.” Lucky him. But this becomes yet another blemish on an already spotty record this season. The fact that the accident occurred while Suh is serving a two-game suspension only stands to highlight his perceived “lack of judgement.” I wonder how Lions management will respond to this and if further disciplinary actions will be issued.
Detroit’s magical season hit midnight rather quickly. The coach is looking more like a pumpkin every game.
