Athens PD release troubling details of reckless driving arrest of Georgia OL Bo Hughley

The troublesome behavior of various Georgia football players and others associated with the program behind the wheel has not abated, with several recent incidents in the headlines in July. That includes one involving second-year offensive lineman Jonathan LeMonte ‘Bo’ Hughley.

And the Athens Police Department released a police report on the recent incident involving Hughley that recounts an apparently harrowing crash where the occupants of the vehicle — and bystanders — were fortunate not to be seriously harmed. The report, released in response to a Freedom of Information Request from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution recounts how Hughley, with five-star enrollee Ellis Robinson IV riding in the passenger seat, left the road around the area of East Campus Village.

Driving a Chrysler 300, Hughley approached a stretch of road where, as one road gives way to a different street, there’s a sharp curve. According to the police report, Hughley failed to make the curve, with his vehicle hitting the curb, careening off the road and coming to rest back on the road. The right front wheel was shorn off the vehicle, rendering it immobile at the scene. A street sign for the 25 mile per hour speed limit was also taken out in the crash.

The vehicle damage, along with relevant remote camera footage, have led investigators to doubt Hughley’s claims that the duo were traveling around the 25 mile per hour speed limit when the crash happened, according to the AJC.

This story will be updated.
