The footage of Brown twerking and the aftermath with paramedics treating him at the scene went viral last week. Six days later, he died from his injuries.
The jeep driver, Riley Rhoades, 24, was arrested at the scene for driving while intoxicated. Breath tests showed blood-alcohol levels of 0.14 and 0.12, both well above the legal limit. Apparently the jeep was going 75mph at the time of impact.
Authorities are considering upgrading the charges to intoxication manslaughter.

Just really awful for everyone involved and a reminder of what can happen when you’re young and reckless and think you’re invincible. Add alcohol and a speeding car to the mix and it can very easily end in disaster, as was the case here.
RIP Michael Brown and let this be a lesson to everyone else his age who might think that twerking on top of a speeding jeep is a good idea.
