It is with a heavy heart that I post this. While I didn't know him well, I knew Dan. He was a great guy. We had an opportunity to work together on a Cobra project, a couple of years ago. He was generous with his time and very talented.

The attached photo is of the Unique Motorcars showroom. Up high on the wall are two banners on which Dan and I worked - CSX 2459, the yellow Lew Florence car, and CSX 2431, the blue Ken Miles car. Dan sold banners on eBay, and his store still was up last week. They are really nicely done!

I pray that both Dan and Diane rest in peace, and that their families are comforted by happy memories!

It's being said that the man in video may have turned himself in and that he threw a bottle at Mr Fabrizio's Cobra (May him and his wife Rest in Peace) I haven't been able to find a news article yet. This supposedly happened today. One place it was mentioned was on the YouTube video in the comments and also it was mentioned on TikTok. I don't have Tiktok but I was still able to watch the video. I hope it's true, I knew this man couldn't be sleeping at night.

I find the play by play commentary to be truly distasteful and done without regards for the family and friends of the victims of this horrendous incident. If there is indeed a "local property owner" who caused this to occur, may he be found guilty by a jury of his peers and sent to prison for a long, long time.

We seem to forget these people have family and friends who are devastated by this tragic situation. Guys like the one in the video who exploit situations like this for the typical attention seeking "Look At Me, Pay Attention To Me!!!!" moment that social media is designed for and promotes is pathetic. He should be ashamed of himself but I seriously doubt that he is.

I've looked on line and I can find nothing at this time that indicates that anyone has been arrested, other than the word of the TicTok attention whore imbecile in this video.

Sorry for my strong opinion here, I just can't imagine how the family feels seeing crap like this video.
