Angels rookie pitcher Adenhart killed in car crash

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Los Angeles Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart was among three people killed in a crash in Fullerton, California, early Thursday, according to a hospital spokesman.

Adenhart, 22, from Silver Spring, Maryland, died at UC Irvine Medical Center, according to spokesman John Murray.

The crash occurred just hours after Adenhart made his first start of the season for the Angels, pitching six scoreless innings in a 6-4 loss to the Athletics.

One person was arrested in connection with the three-vehicle accident occurred about 12:23 a.m. Thursday in Fullerton, south of Los Angeles. Witnesses say a red minivan ran a red light and struck two vehicles at a Fullerton intersection, police Lt. Craig Brower told CNN.

Let me guess, hmm an illegal immigrant with no license or green card kills someone.

Anyone else want to guess, lets open the borders some more.

Did you know in other countries you can not get a job unless your a natural born citizen there, like the Bahama's Maybe they know something we don't?

These people who think that their buzz is more important than other peoples lives have got to be dealt with. While the car makers are going threw a restructuring process they should include some sort of an anti-drunk entry lock.

Real sad, this guy hadn't even started his life or career.

What was the other driver doing to make him run from the scene after the crash.

From story.....
The minivan's driver fled the scene and was later arrested, Brower said. Andrew Thomas Gallo, 22, of Riverside will face charges of manslaughter, felony driving under the influence and hit-and-run, he said

This kid had finally realized a childhood dream and pitched 6 scoreless innings in his first pro start in the majors. This is such a sad tradgedy. Thoughts and prayers are with the Adenhart family in Silver Spring. God be with you through this terrible time.
I just cannot imagine watching my son pitch his first pro game workin a no-hitter then goin to bed and getting a phone call or a knock on the door telling you that your son has been killed. My dear God, I cannot imagine.Please pray for the family.

That isn't the result of any 35 mph crash, either.

So what do you say now? NOT an illegal alien. You might want to examine your own prejudices,buddy, before you jump to conclusions. You know what is the most common characteristic of people who kill other people? Their gender. So why don't you just rip on all men, since they are the actual culprits.

Yes I am sure all illiegal aliens drive around intoxicated. Thats a great reason for sending them back to where ever they came from. I am so glad my parents were able to come here when they did ----60 years ago--- when it was not a crime to be from a foreign country

Its not a crime to be from a distant country and imigrate here, it is a crime to avoid or by-pass our United States federal law on imigration to gain access to our wonderful land. Just bcause the politicians dont give a crap doesnt mean some of else dont.
