Jeff Sperbeck, former agent of John Elway, dies after a violation of the golf car. Here what we know

La Quinta, California (AP) – The Death of Jeff Sperbeck, a business partner and former agent of the NFL Hall of Famer John Elway, seemed to be a “terrible accident” after a golf car that did not include criminal activity, said Sheriff Chad Bianco, whose agency examined the incident.

The 62 -year -old Sperbeck died on Wednesday after his injury in a golf community in South California. Witness Ali Simon told Kesq-TV from Palm Springs that Elway was at the scene.

“This seems to be a terrible accident,” Sheriff Chad Bianco from Riverside County told Denver Post. “And unfortunately for everyone involved are one of the human people, a few of them very top-class celebrities. And that makes it more of a problem than it should be.”

Elway, who played his entire career in the Denver Broncos, made an explanation in which he said he was destroyed by the loss of his close friend.

Here is what we know about the incident.

The fire brigade authorities of Riverside County were appointed to the Madison Club, an upscale country club and a shared community in a desert community near Palm Springs on Saturday evening to report a report about a person after falling from a golf car that suffers serious injuries.

Sperbeck was then taken to the hospital and died of his injuries early Wednesday.

Elway was at the scene, Witness Ali Simon told Kesq-TV. Simon said she didn't see the accident, but saw a man who lies on the floor, surrounded by people and Ellen on the phone.

TMZ has reported that Elway was driving the golf car, citing unknown sources. Kusa TV in Denver also cited an unnamed source in which he said that Elway had driven.

Criminal prosecution officers did not say who drove the golf car, and Elway did not confirm or denied him in an explanation of Sperbeck's death.

The on -site medical staff found no evidence that Elway was drunk, Bianco told Denver Post. He did not work on how the staff was drawn to this conclusion.

Bianco said that first aiders did not call the Sheriff's office to the scene immediately, and would usually notify the law enforcement authorities if there were concerns. He said his agency was involved in the case after the media's interest and checked surveillance material and testimony. The examination will be short, he said.

Ed Obayashi, deputy sheriff and special prosecutor of Modoc County, said that the law enforcement authorities could initially not be asked to examine an injury in which, for example, a single person is involved who falls down the stairs or from a bike.

However, if death occurs, the officers of the law enforcement authorities are usually asked for an investigation so that the forensic doctor can fill out a thorough report.

“There could be a question of routine, or there may be some information you have received for which you have to examine this,” said Obayashi, the law enforcement officer on legal questions.

Sperbeck, who comes from the Orange County Seaside Community in San Clemente, began in 1990 with the administration of Elway when Elway was a quarterback for Denver Broncos. He represented more than 100 NFL players as an agent and business consultant for a three decades.

He was best known as Elway's long-time friend, business partner and agent, who helped the administration of Hall of Fam to manage the extensive Off-Field business empire at the management of restaurants, car dealers and a winery.

Sperbeck headed Elways marketing and business companies and the two worked with the winemaker Rob Mondavi Jr. Sperbeck was also involved in numerous non -profit efforts and was a co -founder of a sports marketing company.

After Sperbeck's death, Elway gave an explanation.

“I am absolutely destroyed and broken with broken heart due to the death of my close friend, business partner and agents Jeff Sperbeck,” he said. “There are no words to really express the profound sadness that I feel with the sudden loss of someone who means so much to me.”
