Update 8:34am (8-29-2011)
We received this email this morning telling us a little more about the man who died in the accident:
“The guy” killed was Johnny Giosa, a very well-loved musician, aspiring model/actor, and hair stylist. His most recent gig was drummer for 80′s rock band Bulletboys. He grew up here in Delaware County, PA and moved to LA about 6 years ago to pursue his career. He was a good friend to many people and will be sorely missed. We are all in shock at his sudden death.
