    Nick Adenhart Killed In Car Accident

    per mlbtraderumors.

    Awful news today. TMZ reports that Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart was killed in a felony hit-and-run car accident early this morning. Two others were killed in the crash, and the offender was caught and then hospitalized. The 22 year-old had just tossed six scoreless innings the night before, the best performance of his young career.

    Just read it on rotoworld and couldn't believe it. What awful news.

    Just absolutley stomach-churningly awful news.

    I watched him pitch last night. Six shutout innings against the A's, worked out of several jams. Plenty of close-ups on his face by the cameras. He was SO young.

    This is just so sad.

    Adenhart was the Angels #1 prospect, and was coming off a six inning shutout performance last night. Kid had a bright future ahead of him. This is so sad.

    This is just awful news. Here is the full story of what happened:

    FULLERTON (AP) ―

    Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart was one of three people killed early Thursday morning in a hit-and-run crash in Fullerton.

    The crash took place only hours after the 22-year-old pitcher played in last night's Angels game.

    Police say the driver of a minivan ran a red light in Fullerton and struck two cars, killing three people in a Mitsubishi and critically injuring a passenger.

    Police Lt. Craig Brower says the minivan driver fled the crash scene and was captured a short time later. The driver was arrested and booked for investigation of felony hit-and-run.

    Police say the van ran the red light early Thursday and struck the gray Mitsubishi, which then slammed into a light pole. Two people in the Mitsubishi died instantly, and a third died at a hospital a short time later.

    A fourth occupant was in critical condition at UC Irvine Medical Center in
    Orange.

    It's posted on Sun Deck that another member of the Angels organization was killed in the crash. Doesn't specify whether it was a player or not.
