Toxicology shows Dwayne Haskins was legally drunk at time of death

A report released Monday by the Broward County Medical Examiner shows Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins was legally drunk when he was struck by a dump truck and killed on a Florida highway on April 9.

The driver of the dump truck, who is not identified, said he was driving in the darkness when “all the sudden a male appeared standing in his travel lane.” Haskins was also “partially contacted” by a second vehicle as it attempted to swerve around him, according to authorities.

The medical report showed Haskins’ BAC (Blood Alcohol Content) was between .20 and .24. The latter figure would be more than triple the legal limit for anyone driving. There was no indication who was behind the wheel of the vehicle when it ran out of gas.
