I learned about these developments from reading the Arkansas Times Blog.
Petrino left some details out at his press conference. Everybody is reporting that he was not riding alone. A lot of outlets have been covering this and here is the report from Arkansas 360:
Jessica Dorrell A Passenger On Motorcycle With Petrino At Time Of Accident
4/5/2012 at 3:43pm
Arkansas Coach Bobby Petrino was accompanied by a female passenger on the back of his motorcycle when he wrecked on Sunday, according to the Arkansas State Police accident report.
(A PDF l copy of the accident report may be viewed by clicking here.)
Jessica Dorrell, 25, Petrino’s newly hired student athlete development coordinator for football, was with the coach at the time of the accident. Dorrell and Petrino, 51, were transported from the accident scene and Dorrell, who reported no injuries when interviewed by State Police, left in her own vehicle.
A release from the University of Arkansas earlier this week said Petrino was involved in a wreck “that involved no other individuals.”
Here’s how Petrino described the aftermath of the accident when he met with the media on Tuesday:
“When I came out of a ditch, there was a lady there that had flagged down a car. And the guy that was in the passenger seat said get in we’ll just take you right to the hospital.”
ArkansasSports360.com will update.
