Former Kansas City Chiefs coach Britt Reid charged with felony DUI from February accident
Former Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach Britt Reid has been charged with felony driving while intoxicated. This stems from a car crash earlier this year that left a 5-year-old girl Ariel Young in critical condition.
The Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office filed the class D felony charge Monday, stating that Reid “operated a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, and acted with criminal negligence by driving at an excessive rate of speed.”
Britt Reid would face a maximum sentence of seven years in prison if convicted. The crash occurred on February 4th. Reid’s vehicle slammed into two vehicles on the side of the highway near Arrowhead Stadium.
According to ESPN, Analysis of the crash indicated that Reid was driving 83.9 mph just 1.9 seconds before his Dodge Ram collided with two parked vehicles on the ramp — a Chevy Impala and Chevy Traverse.
