The hit-and-run investigation surrounding Buffalo Bills running back Marshawn Lynch has now roped in the team's owner, Ralph Wilson. The Buffalo News reports that Wilson is one of nine people affiliated with the Bills who prosecutors will subpoena in connection with the incident.It's not clear what Wilson knows, but prosecutors could think that Wilson has asked Lynch point blank whether he was driving his SUV when it hit a pedestrian two weeks ago. Also likely to be subpoenaed are Bills rookie wide receivers James Hardy and Steve Johnson and second-year offensive lineman Christian Gaddis.
The Buffalo News also reports that although Lynch has never been arrested in New York State, local police were familiar with him -- and his propensity for getting kicked out of bars -- before the hit and run took place:
one law enforcement official was not surprised to hear about the latest incident involving Lynch's vehicle.Lynch has still not said anything publicly, or to the police, about the incident."God, no, I wasn't surprised at all," the source said. "It follows a pattern. It's the kind of stuff he's been doing. He's just so cavalier about everything. That was always my impression."
