I heard from a nearby resident that he had just returned from the doctors office for a foot injury wearing a sock or soft cast. Theory is it may have played a part in accelerating inadvertently . Very sad.
Is this the same Jeff Davis that works surveillance for casino in north shore and mont blue ? He’s a good friend of mine I hope this is someone else !
