On Tuesday, 2 November 2021, NFL star Henry Ruggs III and his girlfriend Kiara Je’Nai Kilgo-Washington got involved in a severe car accident in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The pair were driving at a speed of 156 mph in the early hours of the morning when the athlete’s Chevrolet Corvet crashed into Tina Tintor’s Toyota Rav4, killing the 23-year-old victim and her dog in the process.
The pair were rushed to University Medical Center in Las Vegas and reportedly sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries. Police authorities later revealed that Henry Ruggs’ blood-alcohol level was twice the legal limit in Nevada.
Following the incident, the wide receiver was released by the Las Vegas Raiders. He was detained at the Clark County Detention Center after his release from the hospital.
He is likely to be charged with DUI resulting in death and could face up to 26 years in prison if convicted. Ruggs appeared in court for the initial hearing of his case on 3 November 2021 and the judge set $150,000 in bail.
