ABILENE, Texas (KTAB/KRBC) — An Abilene Christian University (ACU) football player has been seriously injured in a car crash that happened Thursday night.
According to the Abilene Police Department (APD), 21-year-old Sema’J Davis was flown to a hospital in Fort Worth after the multi-car accident that critically injured one other and sent two others to the hospital with injuries.

A 17-year-old female passenger in the Charger, who was wearing her seat belt, was taken to an Abilene hospital. There is currently no word on either of their conditions.
