This is where things get weird. Morejon reports that there was a New England Patriots player present at the scene of the accident, but he is “nowhere to be found now”. The police would like to interview him as a witness:

The 23-year-old Walker was a fourth-round pick by the Ravens out of Texas Southern in 2015. He appeared in only eight games and was credited with two tackles.
