California authorities say the death of Jeff Sperbeck in a golf cart accident appears to be a horrific accident.

The death of John Elway’s longtime friend and business partner following a fall from a golf cart Elway was driving last weekend in California appears to be a “tragic accident,” according to the local sheriff.

The Riverside County sheriff hasn’t found any indication of criminal activity in Jeff Sperbeck’s fall from a golf cart driven by John Elway.
