Ruggs was released from a hospital and taken to jail ahead of an initial court appearance scheduled on Wednesday. Ruggs faces felony charges of driving under the influence of alcohol resulting in death and reckless driving, court records show. Police are prohibited by federal privacy law from disclosing medical information, said Officer Larry Hadfield, a department spokesman. Ruggs “showed signs of impairment,” police said in a statement that did not identify the woman who died, the injuries that Ruggs or his passenger received or name Ruggs’ passenger, who remained hospitalized. The woman was not immediately identified.
The Toyota burst into flames and the driver and her dog died, police said. The 22-year-old Ruggs and his passenger were hospitalized with unspecified injuries that police said did not appear life-threatening after the Chevrolet Corvette he was driving slammed at high speed into the rear of a Toyota Rav4 on a busy thoroughfare in a residential area several miles west of the Las Vegas Strip about 3:40 a.m. LAS VEGAS - The Las Vegas Raiders released Henry Ruggs III just hours before the promising young receiver faced an initial court appearance on multiple felony charges after a fiery predawn vehicle crash that left a woman dead and Ruggs and his female passenger injured.
