Ex-PSU Receiver Julian Fleming
Hit With Criminal Charges
… Over Fatal ATV Crash
Published
Former Penn State wide receiver Julian Fleming is facing multiple criminal charges related to the tragic ATV accident that killed his girlfriend earlier this year.
A Bradford County, Penn. court official tells TMZ Sports — Fleming is slated to appear before a judge later Wednesday to face several charges, including one count of driving under the influence and one count of aggravated assault by vehicle.
The case stems from the horrific wreck that occurred in late May.
According to Pennsylvania State Police, Fleming, 24, was driving his ATV on a rural road when a deer jumped out in front of him, causing a collision. The impact sent Fleming and his girlfriend, 23-year-old Alyssa Boyd, flying.
Police say neither was wearing safety equipment while in the four-wheeler. Boyd was pronounced dead at the scene, while Fleming was transported to the hospital with serious injuries.
Fleming began his college career at Ohio State in 2020 — and after spending four seasons with the Buckeyes, he transferred to PSU. He played in 16 games for the Nittany Lions in ’24 — logging 14 catches for 176 yards and one touchdown.
