Three people that were injured in that crash, which occurred on East Carson Street, filed two lawsuits against Pryor, alleging he was speeding when he ran a red light and crashed his Tesla Cybertruck into another car that was trying to turn into the GetGo at the intersection of 33rd Street. Pryor was uninjured, but according to court paperwork, Pryor “violently struck” the Nissan Rogue, flipping it and pinning it against the traffic light post. The lawsuits note that the three people in that car inside the Nissan were hurt, but Pryor did not get injured. No charges have been filed against the former standout football player who played for Jeanette High School, Ohio State University and nine different NFL teams.
