Miami Beach Detective Juan Sanchez, the department’s spokesman said, “That has not been released or confirmed by us. They went with that story without confirming it with us.”

Sanchez added that although results of the toxicology report are due Friday, “we will not be releasing those results until we make an arrest.”

According to WSVN’s report, authorities said they are waiting to see when and where Stallworth will turn himself in. The station said Stallworth faces a DUI manslaughter charge which carries a 15-year sentence in jail if convicted.

This is only a report, so we’ll have to see what the official statement is by investigators but either way, this obviously isn’t good for Stallworth.
