According to the Kansas City Police Department in Missouri, three vehicles were involved in the accident, which occurred on the south ramp to Interstate 435 at Stadium Drive near Arrowhead Stadium, the Chiefs’ home field.
Police said a Chevy Impala was disabled on the ramp and the driver asked family members for help. His family arrived and parked his Chevy Traverse south of the disabled car. A Dodge Ram truck hit both vehicles. A 4 and 5-year-old at Traverse was transported to a local hospital, with sustained serious injuries for 5 years, police said.
The children’s condition was unknown on Friday night. Impala and Traverse drivers were not injured, police said.
The truck driver suffered non-fatal injuries and was being investigated for physical damage, according to the police incident report.
The officer conducted a sobriety test and observed signs of disability, the warrant says.
Reid was taken to a local hospital after complaining of stomach pain.
Reid has not been charged with any crime so far.
According to the search warrant, a computer check by the police revealed that Reid had “several previous DUI contacts.” The police requested and received permission from a judge to collect blood from Reid to assist in his investigation.
In a statement, the Kansas City Chiefs said: “The organization has been informed of an accident involving several vehicles involving External Linebacker trainer Britt Reid. We are in the process of gathering information and will have no further comments at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved. “
The Chiefs are scheduled to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the Super Bowl LV on Sunday in Tampa, Florida. The Chiefs plan to fly to Tampa on Saturday.
The Chiefs did not say whether Reid, who coaches outside linebackers, would travel with the team. The team did not respond to requests for additional information.
