"Pitt freshman football player Mason Alexander was killed Saturday night after a car accident in his hometown of Fishers, Indiana.

Alexander, 18, was pronounced dead at the scene. According to the Hamilton County sheriff's office, he was a passenger in a 2016 BMW driving south on Florida Road. The driver of the car tried to pass a 2015 Toyota before a hillcrest and swerved to avoid a head-on collision with another car traveling in the northbound lane. The BMW traveled off the road and eventually hit a tree, catching on fire."

Man this is so sad and every parent's worst nightmare.

Did the driver survive? If so, that will be an incredibly difficult thing to live with for the rest of his life.
