One person is Rekubitin custody and charged with a DWI after crashing into the Abilene Chrisitian University football team bus and injuring four people on Saturday night.
According to Lubbock, Texas police, at 11:33 p.m., officers were helping direct traffic as the ACU team's bus was leaving Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock after playing against Texas Tech.
That is when a vehicle driven by 19-year-old Parker Young, disregarded traffic direction and collided with the bus. This forced the bus into another vehicle in the left turn lane.
According to police, four individuals from the bus were transported to University Medical Center with moderate injuries. According to a statement from ACU football posted on social media, one student, two coaches and the bus driver were injured in the crash.
"We are grateful to Texas Tech Director of Athletics Kirby Hocutt, their team physician, Dr. Michael Phy, and all of the first responders for their assistance," read the statement.
Young was transported to the Lubbock County Detention Center, where he was charged with a DWI and is awaiting for his bond to be set, according to LCDC records.
Early Sunday morning, Texas Tech Athletics released the following statement about the crash:
"The thoughts and prayers of Red Raider Nation are with our friends at ACU and those who may have been injured in tonight’s accident. Our administration has been in constant contact with ACU’s staff since their departure and will assist wherever needed."
