As some of you may know 4 highschool students got hit by a drunk driver and its trending on twitter nation wide.

#TebowCallMatt
#MissyCallBailey


heres the story

They both ended up calling both students who survived.

Deanna was one of my moms friends daughters, absolutely devastating.


Our community came as a whole to support this whole thing and is absolutely amazing.

unfortunately, the funerals are going to be to family only.

ABout a month ago, there was this girl by my high school with cancer and all she wanted was to meet Justin Beiber.

We got #JustinVisitHailey trending in the regionals and he visited her in the hospital.

I only heard about the tebow one. That's legit.

It's cool that people are willing to take 5 minutes and do something like that.

I was just about to make a thread about this. I go to Columbia (high school in the Albany area not the university) and it's been all over my twitter feed, truly incredible.

It's a miracle that anyone survived after seeing a picture of the vehicle. Be safe out there guys, you never know who is behind the wheel of an oncoming vehicle. Vibes to you. Thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends, and community.

Looking at those pictures it is incredible that even one let alone two people made it out alive. Pretty cool that twitter was able to get Tebow and Missy to call them.

I'm guessing the car rolled or something? It doesn't seem like a 30 MPH difference would cause that much damage.

He'll never get more than 25 years, unfortunately. And he probably will get 10 or less, because (from what I've heard) he didn't consume enough alcohol for put him over .08. It's disgusting.
