Fellow Beyond member in tragic accident

[LudeRoca]

There was an accident on 19th street and memorial on thursday night. Fellow beyond member Mad$ella was driving his jeep with a few of our friends from HS. They were heading to a drum and bass concert at my apartment. Unfortunatly they didnt make it to the club. Goin from 19th onto memorial mike mis judged and thought the cement barrier was the bridge and ended up goin right thru it. He currenty in critical condition at the foothills hospital. Others are also in serious condition and we hope they will make it thru okay. He has all the bones in his face broken and his arms and one leg i believe. Others went in for surgery and ill keep ya guys updated on their conditon. The sad part of it all is there was excessive amounts of alcohol involved.

I hope everyone involved makes a quick and full recovery... a friend of mine passed away last year because he got into the vehicle with an intoxicated driver...

On the flip side... at least he wasn't driving his Mustang, there probably would have been fatalities as opposed to serious injuries.
