First Coast News is reporting that Jaguars’ defender Quentin Groves has been accused by a motorist of being involved in a hit-and-run car crash, which took place on Friday.
The father of one of the drivers, Robyn Jackett, says Groves hit his son’s car and another car and then fled the scene.
According to an crash report, it happened Friday, which was when the Jaguars were flying to Seattle, near the entrance to the airport at Pecan Park and Yankee Clipper Drive.
Jackett says his son was approaching the intersection when a Cadillac Escalade changing lanes clipped another car and sent it spinning.
The Escalade then changed lanes again and stopped abruptly and Jackett’s car ended up wedged under the Escalade.
According to Jackett, Groves then stepped out of his car, said he was a Jaguars player and had a plane to catch and drove off.Both Jackett and the other driver involved told First Coast News another driver that witnessed the crash then followed Groves down the road and blocked him from driving away until airport police arrived.
But the report shows Groves was only given a warning for improper lane change.
I don’t want to draw conclusions from one article, but this sounds like another athlete who doesn’t think the law applies to him. But let’s see what other details emerge.
