Footage of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones’ involvement in a car crash emerged earlier this week.
On Wednesday evening, a dashcam caught a two-car collision happening at a relatively high speed. In a quick moment, a quiet intersection became the site of a harrowing scene. Of the two vehicles involved, one participant was notable Dallas Cowboys owner, Jerry Jones.
On an unprotected turn, Jones was responsible for the crash and hit the side of another car while attempting to turn.
The NFL franchise owner was spotted driving a dark-colored sedan in Dallas, Texas, roughly 20 miles from the Cowboys’ team facility. At an intersection, a silver-colored car was making a left-hand turn into the right lane when Jones’ car slammed into its side. The Dallas Morning News released in a statement, “A crash occurred about 8 p.m. near Harry Hines Boulevard and Wolf Street in Uptown, according to Dallas police. Police said a vehicle failed to yield and turned in front of another vehicle, causing the collision.”
In a video obtained by TMZ, the 79-year-old exited his vehicle with a slight limp and went over on foot to check on the passengers of the other car.

He also brought out a cellular device and called for help, to which emergency responders arrived at the scene.
