"CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball was not injured after being involved in a two-car crash in downtown Charlotte on Wednesday, according to a person familiar with the situation. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the details of the crash. A police report was not immediately made available."
"Ball appeared to be driving through an intersection when his camouflage-colored, custom-made Hummer collided with another vehicle shortly before 5 p.m., according to video obtained by WSOC-TV in Charlotte. The station later posted video of Ball, wearing an aqua-colored Hornets hoodie, getting out of his truck and into another car before being driven away. Police were on the scene at the time."
LaMelo Ball was not injured after a two-car crash in downtown Charlotte. A person familiar with the situation, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the lack of injuries. A police report was not immediately available. Video from WSOC-TV showed Ball driving through an intersection when his camouflage-colored, custom-made Hummer collided with another vehicle shortly before 5 p.m. Footage showed Ball, wearing an aqua-colored Hornets hoodie, exit his truck and enter another car before being driven away. The other driver calmly exited and approached Ball’s truck; the left front tire of Ball’s truck was missing. The Hornets had held practice earlier and were scheduled to host the Houston Rockets the next night, and the incident follows previous Charlotte crashes involving professional athletes including Cam Newton and Andy Dalton.
