Coroner: Ryan Dunn's Death Was Violent
While the toxicology results could take four to six weeks, the Chester County Coroner provided the other results of the autopsy performed on Ryan Dunn and his passenger Zachary Hartwell. They both died very violent deaths and they were more than likely dead before help arrived.
The police believe the car was traveling at 100+ MPH at the time of the wreck and the coroner said that the impact was so violent that it could not be determined if they died from the wreck or the fire that followed.

Roger Ebert Apologizes and Clarifies Tweet
Roger Ebert took to his website and posted the following apology in what appears to be directed to Bam as Ebert writes the apology after first posting the two tweets from Bam.
To begin with, I offer my sympathy to Ryan Dunn's family and friends, and to those of Zachary Hartwell, who also died in the crash. I mean that sincerely. It is tragic to lose a loved one. I also regret that my tweet about the event was considered cruel. It was not intended as cruel. It was intended as true.
I have no way of knowing if Ryan Dunn was drunk at the time of his death.
He then goes on to attempt to clarify what he meant by his tweet.
What did I mean by that? I meant exactly what I wrote. I wasn't calling Ryan Dunn a jackass. In Twitter shorthand, I was referring to his association with "Jackass." I thought that was clear. I note that Bam Margera uses the word "jackass" in the same way in his tweet.
I think what Mr. Ebert has done here is the right thing to do. He is absolutely entitled to his opinion but I believe his tweet was too soon given that all of the facts haven't come out and clarification was definitely needed as the tweet was taken as offensive by Ryan's loved ones. You can read his entire apology and clarification here.
