FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino will not be cited in the motorcycle accident that sent him to the hospital on Sunday night.

In Petrino’s accident report, which was released Thursday by state police, Petrino is faulted for the accident that occurred on a rural highway about 20 miles southeast of Fayetteville.

The report also says Petrino was with former Arkansas volleyball player and current Razorback Foundation fundraiser Jessica Dorrell. Petrino, who is married with four children, didn’t mention he had a passenger during a news conference earlier this week.

The report says Dorrell wasn’t taken to a hospital after the accident. Petrino was hospitalized, but has since returned to practice.
