ESPN journalist John Buccigross has shared new information about the tragic accident that took the lives of Matthew Gaudreau and Johnny Gaudreau just before their sister's wedding.
Some people have inappropriately questioned why the Gaudreau brothers were out on their bikes around 8:15 PM, but Buccigross provided an answer:
«We have learned that they were returning from a rehearsal for their sister Katie Gaudreau's wedding, which was scheduled for the next day, where they were both named groomsmen.
They were about 10 minutes away from the family residence on their bikes when they were fatally struck.»

Tragically, the brothers were hit by Sean Higgins, who admitted to drinking 5-6 beers before driving and making a dangerous overtaking maneuver, according to witnesses.
