Dunn and an unidentified person both died in the crash which happened around 3 a.m. at Route 322 and New Street in West Goshen Township. It's unclear who was driving the car.
He had a passenger with him that died also. I feel more sorry for the passenger than for him.

If he was really drinking before hand, then I don't feel bad for the guy one bit.

x2

Drinking + driving + GT3 = well... You see it.

And before anyone gets all uppidy... Yes, I have made some retarded decisions in life but as a 33 year old with a wife and 2 kids... No way I get behind the wheel after drinking.

Jackass indeed.

I feel sorry for the guys, and my prayers are with his friends and family. I have a feeling it will be very sad when we find out the identity of the passenger.

By the way, many sources are saying the passengers name was Zac Hartwell. A friend of Ryan's. 30 years old, recently married. Theres alot of mourning in his name from friends on facebook as well so thats what I would tend to believe until its officially announced.

"West Goshen Police Chief Michael Carroll told the Daily Local News... Dunn's B.A.C. was .196 ... nearly two-and-a-half times the legal limit in Pennsylvania, which is .08."
