PLYMOUTH - The legal troubles facing the two eldest sons of Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid seemed to mount Thursday.

It has been learned that, in the wake of a serious accident Tuesday, Garrett Reid, 23, reportedly waived his right to remain silent and admitted to police that he used heroin the day he allegedly ran a red light and collided with another vehicle at Germantown Pike and Arch Road.

The operator of the second vehicle, a 55-year-old Mount Carmel woman, was cut out of her car by emergency personnel and flown to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. An officer responding to the scene approached Reid's vehicle, a Jeep Liberty, and reportedly observed an ammunition container in the rear compartment and the butt of a handgun under the driver's seat.
