Cowboy surrenders in hit-run

DALLAS - Cowboys cornerback Dwayne Goodrich was the driver of a gray BMW involved in a hit-and-run accident that killed two people who were trying to rescue a man from a burning car on Interstate 35E on Tuesday morning, his agent said.
After meeting with police Tuesday afternoon, Goodrich, 24, was driven to the Lew Sterrett Justice Center to turn himself in about 11 p.m.
Goodrich was booked into Lew Sterrett Justice Center, where he posted $50,000 bond on two manslaughter charges and was released about 2 a.m. Wednesday, a Dallas County sheriff's Department spokeswoman told the Associated Press.
A magistrate had earlier set bail at $25,000 each for the second-degree felony warrants.
Goodrich's agent, Steve Zucker, said, "It was a tragic thing. It was poor judgment in leaving the scene. He panicked."
Two men - Demont Matthews, 23, and Joseph Wood, 21, both of Plano - died after being struck, a spokesman for the Dallas County Medical Examiner's Office said. A third man was also injured.
Senior Cpl. Diana Watts, a police spokeswoman, said the first accident occurred about 2:15 a.m. when a car caught fire after it clipped the back of a northbound semi-trailer truck. Both vehicles became disabled in the second to the left lane of the 11100 block of I-35E, also known as North Stemmons Freeway.
Police said witnesses told them that the driver of the gray BMW was speeding at about 110 mph on the freeway, between Walnut Hill Lane and Royal Lane in northwest Dallas.
Watts said the man who was trapped in the flaming car escaped without major injuries. A third rescuer suffered a broken leg, but he was expected to be released from Parkland Memorial Hospital.
Matthews was a passenger of the flaming car, and he jumped out to help the driver. He was soon joined by Wood and another man who came from across the highway.
"While they were doing that, a gray BMW struck all three of them," Watts said.
Matthews died at the scene, and Wood died about three hours later at Parkland, according to reports.
Zucker said Goodrich swerved to avoid an accident and "hit something." The agent said Goodrich didn't realize the significance until Tuesday morning, when he saw the damage to his car and decided to surrender to police.
According to sources, Goodrich immediately contacted his attorney and met with him at 1 p.m. Tuesday. Dallas lawyer Reed Prospere called police. The police arrived, and Goodrich gave a written statement at 4 p.m.
He surrendered to police, who drove him first to the south entrance of the justice center, where a crowd, including camera crews, was waiting. The unmarked police car then backed out of the jail entrance, and an officer was overheard telling a cameraman that Goodrich had been assured that no cameras would be present.
The police car pulled away from the building, followed by camera crews. A few minutes later, the car returned to the north entrance, and Goodrich, wearing a light blue jogging suit, was hurried into the building.
Calvin Hill, Cowboys consultant for player programs, said, "We were informed on Tuesday of this tragic situation. It is a police matter, and we will continue to monitor the developments. We are deeply saddened for the families who have experienced this loss of life."
Goodrich is a third-year cornerback who played mostly on special teams for the Cowboys. He had five tackles this season.
The second-round draft pick out of the University of Tennessee played in 11 games this season and made his only NFL start Dec. 21 against Philadelphia.
The deaths occurred less than 24 hours after Dallas police announced a yearlong traffic safety initiative.
Officers intend to reduce traffic deaths in the city by strictly enforcing speed limits and seat-belt laws.
