SPRING, TX (CBS) -- Seven people are still nursing injuries after a runaway electric car plowed into them following a high school football game Saturday night.
The incident happened after Spring Dekaney beat Cibolo Steele, 34-14, to win the Texas 5A Division II football title at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.
Here's the very picture of athletic dedication, Jarret Irving on a Monday morning workout after his team won the state championship Saturday night. Irving says, "Outstanding how everything happened that night. It was just great. It was a great feeling."
Just after the Dekaney Wildcats hard won victory at Cowboys Stadium, a strange thing happened. A runaway golf cart plowed into a scrum of reporters interviewing the winning coach.
And even though the coach himself was knocked to the turf, he was one of the people who scrambled to chase it down.
Coach Willie Amendolo says, "There was no driver. I turned out to be the driver, but I couldn't reach the pedal. So we headed towards the goal posts."
Somebody finally managed to stop the cart but only after it left several people sprawled on the turf with minor injuries.
One victim, Arthur Prayther says, "I heard one guy say "look out." And I took one step back. And then I felt my legs going up from underneath me. Then I had a bounce on the ground. And I was looking up at the rafters at Cowboy field."
It was just plain lucky nobody was seriously hurt.
