" I dont believe there was foul play...that statement is crap. If it's not already bad enough our families are dealing with this loss, something has to be suspected...we love you and will always miss you dan.... "

" My heartfelt sadness and condolences to Danny's family...however I agree that at times the news prints information that is not informative or necessary. According to WKBT news, toxicology reports are pending and before people make decisions on why this accident happened , the results of these tests need to be received. Just my thoughts...Eitzen girl "

" Perhaps it was just a poorly written report and they meant that drunken driving was not the cause. Let's hope so. It's bad enough to lose a loved one in freak accident. But to have it caused by stupid drinking is something that is never forgotten. "

" Why would the mention of foul play be publicized if they didn't think it was there to begin with!?
I am deeply sorry for all the families involved & hope all involved are ok.I just hope it was a freak accident that took the life of this young man and not some act of "foul play " that took his life & put his best friends in danger. "
