Sad news coming out of Atlanta as former Hawks point guard Mookie Blaylock is on life support after being involved in a head on collision.
Blaylock, 46, was driving northbound on Tara Boulevard when for unknown reasons, he crossed over the median and into a southbound lane, Jonesboro police Chief Franklin Allen told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Blaylock’s vehicle struck another vehicle head-on, injuring two people, whose names were not released, and himself, Franklin said.
All three were transported to Atlanta Medical Center, where Blaylock was on life support and unresponsive, Franklin said. A female passenger in the second vehicle was bleeding internally, he said.
Blaylock played with the Nets, Hawks and Warriors doing his 13 year NBA career.
Thoughts and prayers are with all the victims of the crash.
*UPDATE*
One passenger Monica Murphy has died from her injuries and Blaylock is currently still in critical condition.
