CNN was just saying that Josh Hancock had BAC of .157 when he crashed and died.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Josh Hancock was drunk at the time of the crash that killed him, and marijuana was also found in the sport utility vehicle he was driving, authorities said Friday.
Hancock, 29, was also speaking on a cell phone at about the time of the accident early Sunday on Interstate 64 in St. Louis, Police Chief Joe Mokwa said at a news conference.
"Mr. Hancock was legally intoxicated at the time of the accident," Mokwa said.

St. Louis Medical Examiner Dr. Michael Graham said Hancock's blood-alcohol level was 0.157, nearly twice Missouri's legal limit of 0.08.

Mokwa said 8.55 grams of marijuana and a glass pipe used to smoke marijuana were also found in the rented Ford Explorer Hancock was driving. Toxicology tests to determine if drugs were in his system have not been completed.

Just sad, in more ways than one.

Wow, I expected the drunk driving but I never expected to learn that he had over quarter ounce of pot with him...so sad...

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

Very sad. I kinda wondered when they said he was in another wreck a couple days before.

 

[volfan2024]

It is sad.Too bad.I am thankful he didn't injure/kill anyone else.People don't seem to get the message that you can not party and drive, no way, no how!Now, with the report he had a wreck earlier in the week, I wonder if someone should have recognized he had a problem and tried to get him in rehab/counseling, or something.:no:

 

[orange+white=heaven]

What I have read about the earlier accident makes it clear that he was not under the influence on that occasion. In fact the wreck was not his fault. He was clipped by a tractor trailer as I recall. Officers said he did not appear to be impaired at all. In fact the police sat and talked with him for some time while he was waiting for someone to pick him up(his truck was undrivable)...

Doesn't make now any less tragic, but it does not apppear to be a trend...

Sad

 

[smokeyman15]

:no:

 

[doozer]

here's the problem i have with this, the guy runs into a parked tow truck and people are suprised he's drunk?

now, obviously i think this is a tragic incident because it was a death that could have been prevented, but i have to think he kind of got what he deserves. i also have to say thanks that he didn't claim and innocent life with his stupidity.

god rest his soul.

 

[Vercingetorix]

So he was twice the legal limit, talking on a cell phone, and not wearing a seat belt. With a stash of ganja in the car of which he may or may not have been partaking. And according to the woman with whom he was talking, he wasn't headed home, HE WAS ON HIS WAY TO ANOTHER BAR.

Good lord, man. How many ways can you screw this up? I'm surprised he wasn't wearing a blindfold with one hand tied behind his back, too.
