Dan Snyder of the Atlanta Thrashers dies; teammate to face charges
#1
From <a href=http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=1631396 target=new>ESPN.com</a>:
Quote:ATLANTA -- All-Star Dany Heatley will face more serious charges after the death of Atlanta Thrashers teammate Dan Snyder, who never regained consciousness following a horrific car crash.

Snyder died Sunday night at Grady Hospital, the team said, six days after sustaining massive brain injuries in the wreck. He was 25.

Police said Heatley was driving his Ferrari at about 80 mph on a narrow two-lane road last Monday night when he lost control, spun off the road and smashed into a brick-and-wrought-iron fence.

Snyder was a passenger. <b>The car split in half</b>, throwing both players into the road.
As a result, Heatley will now face vehicular homicide charges, which can land him in prison for 3-15 years.

This is also <a href=http://espn.go.com/nba/news/2000/0112/285010.html target=new>somewhat reminiscent</a> of when Bobbie Phills of the then-Charlotte Hornets died in a car crash, again as a result of speeding.
