Miami linebacker Adarius Hayes arrested following fatal collision that claimed the lives of a woman and two children

Miami Hurricanes linebacker Adarius Hayes was arrested last Friday in connection with a car accident in May that resulted in the tragic deaths of a woman and two children in Largo, Florida. The 20-year-old Hayes is facing multiple charges, including three counts of vehicular homicide and one count of reckless driving causing serious bodily harm. After a warrant was issued, Hayes surrendered to authorities, was booked in Pinellas County Jail, and later released on a $350,000 bond. The University of Miami reacted promptly by announcing Hayes' indefinite suspension from all athletic-related activities following the charges. The school stated that they will not be making any further comments on the matter. The crash occurred when Hayes, driving recklessly at nearly twice the speed limit, collided with another vehicle while making aggressive lane changes without signaling. Surveillance footage, witness accounts, and vehicle data all confirmed his reckless driving. The authorities concluded that Hayes' actions showed a complete disregard for the safety of others, leading to the tragic deaths of three victims. This incident has likely ended Hayes' promising career as a football player at Miami, where he had played as a true freshman last season. The University of Miami, ranked No. 10, is set to open their season against No. 7 Notre Dame this Saturday, but they will be missing one of their key young defenders in Hayes.
