^ not sure.

unfortunately this passed saturday night a few of us were leaving lakeland to head to tampa, one of the guys with us threw a rod merging onto I-4 from the polk parkway. well in the proccess of trying to get his car hooked up to tow it off the highway an oncoming car smashed into the back of his car. pushing his car into the car attempting to tow him, which he was standing inbetween the 2 cars and was injured in the midst of everything. unfurtunately he didnt make it, LRMC had him on life support till his family made the decision to take him off due to his injuries he would never recover from.

only a few of us out there knew who he was, as he is from Mass. and was only down here to attend UTI in orlando. his girlfriend was in the passenger seat of the car when it got hit, she luckily walked away with only minor injuries, aswell as the driver of the car attempting to tow his. he was lucky enough to run on foot far enough out of harms way, although his car was involed in the accident causing alot of damage to his car aswell.


R.I.P. Josh O'keefe he went into surgery at 10:00shared_pm tonight( Monday June 14th 2010) where he is donating his organs and saving 7 lives.
