LeRoi Moore Died

LeRoi Moore, who played saxophone for the Dave Matthews Band, died Tuesday afternoon. He was only 46 years-old.
Moore crashed his ATV on June 30, and suffered from broken ribs and a punctured lung. Recently he was admitted to Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles where he died from complications resulting from his injuries in June.
At Staples Center in Los Angeles on Tuesday, Dave Matthews told the crowd:
"We all had some bad news today. Our good friend LeRoi Moore passed on and gave his ghost up today, and we will miss him forever."
Be careful riding ATVs. I’ve personally know quite a few people injured and killed riding them. Ozzy Osbourne also broke some ribs riding an ATV a few years ago on his property in 2003, and had to breath with the help of a ventilator for a while.
