Slater also went on to report that Hayes has been involved in other car crashes in the past that have resulted in tickets for the Miami star. However, at this stage no charges have been filed against Hayes despite the severity of the accident and at least three victims.

Hayes appeared in three games for the Hurricanes last season as a freshman, including in wins over Louisville and Florida State.
