I used to live about a ½ mile from where that happened. The Detroit Free Press showed a picture of the car on the front page of the paper. There was MAYBE 40% of the car left.

I think the toxicology report will come back that the driver was drunk.

Idiot got what he deserved. And if he WAS drunk, I don't feel any sympathy for the people who climbed in with him, either.

That's the town where I lived as a kid, but I don't recognize any of those names. Sad story though.
