OnlineAthens and the Athens Banner-Herald reported on a traffic accident in the college town of Athens, GA last weekend involving a senior member of the University of Georgia varsity football team.
A defensive back for UGA’s Division I football team was involved in a multi-vehicle accident in Athens following Saturday’s game versus the University of Kentucky. Athens – Clarke County Police responded to a call near 520 Macon Highway to investigate the incident, according to spokespeople for the police department.
