DEVELOPING: A starting pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels was killed after a game early Thursday in a hit-and-run accident, FOX News confirmed.
Police said a minivan driver ran a red light in Fullerton, Calif., striking two cars in a crash that left three people dead. A representative for the Angels told FOX that pro-baseball player Nick Adenhart was among those killed.
The Angels said they were saddened by the news and would release a statement shortly.
Adenhart, 22, had just pitched a game against the Oakland A's mere hours earlier.
University of California, Irvine Medical Center spokesman John Murray told The Associated Press that the rookie pitcher died Thursday morning after undergoing surgery.
