Police believe speed may have been a contributing factor in the accident.

According to the celebrity gossip web site TMZ, just hours before the wreck Dunn had been with friends at a bar in West Chester where he had uploaded a picture of himself with a drink in hand to his Twitter account; however, at this time there is no word if alcohol played a role in the crash.

Ryan Dunn was best known as a daredevil and sidekick of Bam Margera in the popular stunt and prank MTV television series "Jackass," which was filmed in the West Chester region. Various "Jackass" films followed along with other reality shows like "Viva La Bam," "Homewrecker" and several independent films.
