Jeff Sperbeck's Cause of Death Revealed After John Elway Accident
Late last month John Elway's longtime frined and agent Jeff Sperbeck, died from injuries sustained when he fell off a golf cart driven by the Hall of Fame quarterback.
Sperbeck was 62 years old. He was declared dead just three days after he reportedly fell from a golf car driven by Elway and hit his head on the asphalt.
Elway released an emotional statement hours after his friend's passing.
'I am absolutely devastated and heartbroken by the passing of my close friend, business partner and agent Jeff Sperbeck. There are no words to truly express the profound sadness I feel with the sudden loss of someone who has meant so much to me," Elway said in a statement at the time.
"My heart and deepest sympathies go out to Jeff's wife, Cori; his children Carly, Sam and Jackson; and everyone who knew and loved him. Jeff will be deeply missed for the loyalty, wisdom, friendship and love he brought into my life and the lives of so many others.'
According to a statement from the Riverside Sheriff's Coroner Bureau, via NBC News, Sperbeck's death was caused by 'blunt head trauma" and his death was ultimately ruled an "accident."
The "mode of death" for the 62-year-old Sperbeck was described as: 'Passenger fell from golf cart.' While the investigation remains ongoing, Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco said "so far it appears to be just a tragic accident.'
Sperbeck and Elway went into business together following the latter's NFL career, starting 7Cellars winery together in 2013.

Michigan State settles with 3 survivors of 2023 mass shooting for $30M
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Michigan State University has reached settlements worth about $30 million with three students who survived a mass shooting in 2023, attorneys said Tuesday. Three students were killed and five more were wounded when a man with no connection to the school fired shots inside two buildings. Michigan State agreed to a $14.2 million settlement with Nathan Statly; $13 million with Yukai 'John' Hao; and $2.5 million with Troy Forbush, according to lawyers at Grewal Law and Gruel Mills Nims & Pylman. 'While the university cannot comment on any specific settlements, we truly hope reaching a resolution helps provide some measure of relief, support and care to impacted individuals and their families,' Michigan State said. Statly was shot in the head, Hao was paralyzed after being shot in the back, and Forbush was shot in the chest. Three students were killed: Brian Fraser, Arielle Anderson and Alexandria Verner. Their families reached settlements with Michigan State in late 2023. The gunman, Anthony McRae, 43, killed himself after being confronted by police that night, nearly 4 miles (6 kilometers) from the East Lansing campus.

Several stores looted in downtown Los Angeles following fourth day of protests Several stores looted in downtown Los Angeles following fourth day of protests Several stores looted in downtown Los Angeles following fourth day of protests Looters burglarized several stores in downtown Los Angeles for the second night in a row late Monday into early Tuesday following several days of protests and disturbances in parts of the city prompted by federal immigration enforcement operations. Authorities said multiple people were detained after break-ins at several stores downtown. They include Adidas, Apple, Shoe Palace, CVS, a marijuana dispensary, a pharmacy and a jewelry store. It's not yet clear if the suspects were involved in the ongoing protests or if they were simply being opportunistic given the situation. Officers with the LAPD investigate after an Adidas store was looted following the fourth day of immigration-related protests in downtown Los Angeles. OC HAWK A man told CBS News Los Angeles that he saw groups using tools and saws to break into the storefronts. "They came prepared," the man said. A video obtained by CBS News Los Angeles showed at least 30 masked people running out of a CVS store through a broken window, carrying apparently stolen items. On Saturday night, the L.A. Police Department urged business owners to photograph any damage done by looters or vandals and send them to authorities. LAPD told CBS News Los Angeles on Tuesday morning that they were compiling arrest numbers in connection with the looting.
