KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Former Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach Britt Reid is scheduled to go to trial in April after a crash last year that seriously injured a 5-year-old girl. Reid, the son of Chiefs Coach Andy Reid, will go on trial April 18. The trial date was set during a virtual hearing Thursday. Prosecutors say Reid was speeding and under the influence of alcohol when he hit two cars on an Interstate 435 entrance ramp near Arrowhead Stadium. A child in one of the cars, 5-year-old Ariel Young, suffered a traumatic brain injury. The trial is expected to last about a week.
