Buffalo RB Lynch Reaches Agreement In Hit-And-Run Case
Friday, June 20, 2008
Buffalo, NY -- (Sports Network) - Buffalo running back Marshawn Lynch has reached an agreement to apparently plead guilty that he was the driver in his hit-and- run case from May 31.Erie County (NY) district attorney Frank Clark announced an agreement in principle during a Friday news conference, but refused to disclose details of any plea until Lynch appears in court next week. However, Clark did say the agreement is related to Lynch driving the vehicle. "This whole agreement is predicated on the fact that he was driving the car," Clark said. "Has he said that? The answer officially is no. The reason we are here and in these negotiations is all predicated on the fact that he was driving the vehicle." In the incident, Lynch's 2008 Porsche Cayenne allegedly struck a pedestrian in downtown Buffalo and then fled the scene. The woman was left with minor injuries. Lynch hasn't admitted that he was the driver of the vehicle, which was impounded after being found by police. Clark said he expects Lynch in court next week because the running back will not plead in absentia. However, Clark refused to discuss the details of the agreement or the charges Lynch is facing. "Ninety percent of matters like this are resolved by plea," Clark said. Lynch, a first-round draft pick of the Bills in 2007, rushed for 1,115 yards and seven touchdowns in his rookie season.
