A four-year-old boy who was struck by a car driven by an alleged drunk driver during the University of Kentucky’s football game Saturday has died, according to the University of Kentucky.

Marco Lee Shemwell, 4, died Monday at UK Healthcare’s Kentucky Children’s Hospital, according to the University of Kentucky.

The child was hit around 2 p.m. Saturday while he and his family were waiting to cross Cooper Drive near Scoville Drive, according to police.

The driver, 18-year-old Jacob R. Heil, was driving east on Cooper and his car might have “veered off the road a little bit,” Lexington police Sgt. Stephen Yoder said Saturday.

The boy was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Heil, a registered first-year student at UK according to university spokesman Jay Blanton, was arrested and charged with driving under the influence.

The arrest citation for Heil stated he had “a strong odor of alcoholic beverages, red blood shot watery eyes and showed signs of impairment on field sobriety tests,” according to WKYT, the Herald-Leader’s reporting partner.

awful situation for all involved. He will, and should, pay a heavy penalty for this. I would be more judgmental of the teen if I had NEVER driven drunk at his age. Unfortunately, I did but fortunately I did not hurt myself or others.

Terrible for the families.

For DUI resulting in death? Actually, it is what I was expecting.

Horrible for all involved. Two lives ended much too early, one not of his own doing. Tragic.

Wrong board for sympathy. Everyone here can chug six beers and barely feel a slight buzz on their commute.

Terrible. Was it a Mustang?

Mustangs are the Pit Bulls of automobiles.
