The woman accused of causing the accident that claimed the lives of Minnesota Vikings cornerback Khyree Jackson and his two friends is suspected to have known the former Oregon DB.

According to Maryland State Police, Cori Clingman was driving an Infinity Q5 north on Route 4 Pennsylvania Avenue on Friday night when it hit the Dodge Charger, which Jackson was a passenger in.

The vehicle, driven by the player’s old high school teammate Isaiah Hazel, ran off the road and hit several tree stumps before stopping, per Oregonlive.com. Jackson and Hazel were pronounced dead on the scene, while Anthony Lytton Jr., who was in the back, was pronounced dead at hospital.

Clingman, who also hit a Chevrolet Impala, did not suffer any injuries, nor did her passengers. The driver of the Impala is also okay.

Police believe alcohol consumption was at play, with Clingman suspected to have attempted to switch lanes while driving at a very high speed.

 

Fans on social media have since pointed to a tweet she shared after the 24-year-old was drafted by the Vikings in April.

The user who posted the screenshot did warn that the account hasn’t been confirmed as Clingman’s.

Charges were said to be pending as of Saturday.

Tributes Are Coming In For Khyree Jackson

It’s been a sad day for the football world, and the tributes have been coming in from all over.

Khyree Jackson’s former college coach, Dan Lanning, took to social media to lament the player’s passing, with the school sharing their own post as well.

 

The Vikings have since put out a statement, also expressing their condolences via their social media platforms.

“We are devastated by the news of Khyree Jackson’s death following an overnight car accident,” the team tweeted.

“Our thoughts are with Khyree’s family, friends, teammates and coaches, as well as all the victims of this tragic accident.”
