The 4-year old child who was struck by an alleged drunk driver during Kentucky’s football game Saturday has died.
Here are more details:
A statement from UK Public Relations and Marketing said, “Marco Lee Shemwell, 4, passed away at UK HealthCare’s Kentucky Children’s Hospital this afternoon, Sept. 17. The family asks for their privacy at this time.”
Police say the incident happened just after 2 p.m. on Cooper Drive and Scoville Road.
New details from court documents describe a very intoxicated driver, who police say sent the child to the hospital with life threatening injuries following the game-day crash.
