SAN DIEGO — Former Chargers safety Terrence Kiel was killed after he was thrown from a Chevy sedan he was driving, police said Saturday.
Kiel, 27, was driving alone after leaving a party at about 10:15 Friday night when he hit a wall in San Diego's upscale Scripps Ranch neighborhood and was thrown from the car, police Sgt. Alan Hayward said.
Kiel was barely breathing when paramedics reached him and he died about an hour later, Hayward said.
Friends had tried to keep Kiel from driving home from the party, Hayward said, and witnesses told police he appeared to be driving in the wrong direction when he crashed.
Police would not know whether Kiel had been under the influence of drugs or alcohol until toxicology tests were performed, Hayward said.
A second-round draft pick out of Texas A&M in 2003, Kiel played four years in the NFL from 2003-2006, all with the Chargers.
In February 2007 he pleaded guilty to felony and misdemeanor drug charges for shipping prescription cough syrup to Texas, the most significant of several scrapes with the law.

How many people think they are exempt from the Laws of Physics. Seatbelts -- use them as if your life depends on it.

Can't say I feel any sympathy. I'm just thankful he didn't kill anyone else.

It would help if things weren't phrased so delicately. He wasn't "thrown from the car". What happened was the car stopped and he didn't. That's the law of physics.

Unless he was driving an eeeevil SUV. They actually thrown their drivers.
