One of the vehicles, an SUV closest to the brothers, started moving to the left to create room for the brothers. Police and New Jersey prosecutors have said Higgins accelerated around that SUV on the right, driving into the Gaudreau brothers, who both died at the scene.
At the scene of the crime, Sean Higgins, the drunk driver told authorities that he consumed "5 to 6 beers", but it is now confirmed that his blood alcohol level was over the legal limit of 0.08%, specifically it was at 0.087%.

Flynn, the wife of Sean Higgins revealed that he started drinking at home around 3:00pm, and got upset and aggressive by a phone call that took place. He went into his car, left his house and drove around in his Jeep Grand Cherokee during a two-hour phone conversation with a friend.
She further revealed that her husband is no stranger to reckless and aggressive driving.
A judge has said that the confidential 911 call could be released to the public, but it seems very unlikely as the Gaudreau family want to keep those details private.
