No sign of alcohol at the scene of Ventura’s collision

There was no sign of alcohol at the scene of the car collision that took the life of Royals pitcher Yordano Ventura, according to Dominican officials as reported by Rustin Dodd of the Kansas City Star. A toxicology report will take three weeks and could provide more definitive evidence. According to Dodd:

The factors that led to the crash are still unclear, but a basic sketch emerged on Sunday afternoon. Ventura was not wearing his seat belt and was thrown from his white Jeep after losing control on a mountainous stretch of highway, Moore said.
