Uber Driver: Indianapolis Meachum and Nfl Player

uber driver: Atlanta attorney Daniel Meachum is a spokesman for relatives of Indianapolis Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson, who died Sunday along with his Uber driver when a pickup truck struck them along Interstate 70 in Indianapolis, according to Metro News. Meachum says Jackson's relatives are in shock and just want to grieve as a family. The family of an NFL player killed in a suspected drunken-driving crash allegedly caused by a man who was living illegally in the U.S. is grieving privately as the tragedy stirs a national political reaction. He says they planned no response to President Donald Trump's tweets Tuesday about the double-fatality and the crash suspect's immigration status. Federal immigration authorities say a man being held in a suspected drunken-driving crash that killed an Indianapolis Colts player has a prior conviction in California. Trump referred to Jackson's death as disgraceful and called on Democrats to work with him on border security and illegal immigration. 12 05 p.m. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
