Ryan Dunn -- Autopsy Underway

6/20/2011 3:05 PM PDT BY TMZ STAFF

TMZ has learned the Chester County Coroner is currently conducting an autopsy on Ryan Dunn ... to determine, among other things, if alcohol played a role in the "Jackass" star's death.

Ryan Dunn Cause of Death
In addition, we're told the coroner is performing an autopsy on Ryan's unidentified passenger -- who was also killed in the fatal car crash this morning.

As we previously reported, friends claim Ryan had upwards of six drinks before getting behind the wheel ... and driving off a Pennsylvania highway.

So far, no word on when toxicology results will be released.

You all should stop what your saying cause you don't even know if he was drunk. Also, you don't know how the wreck happened. The pictures show skid marks going off the road. did you see the other ones on the left side. Wonder what those are from. Never know till you see the real story.

Disgusting and sickening. Jackass is dirty and make me want to vomit. He knew it was wrong and pervert but he was doing it anyway. He also knew that drinking and driving do not mix and he knew that God is there and he dont obey Jehovah God's law. He is an independent from God. Now, see whats happening ? His choice. I feel sorry for him but he should know better.

I, too, did not know who this guy was. It's sad and all that he died from drunk driving (most likely than not!!). When people are drunk, they have no clue from right and wrong. My question is, if all of his so-called friends knew he had upwards of at least 6 drinks, why in the hell did everybody let him get behind the wheel??? And why would a bartender/owner allow it??? I don't get it. Somebody should have called a taxi. There had to be someone there sober enough to be able to keep the keys away from him and call him a taxi....
I think all car keys should be turned in to the bartenders (or somebody, anybody) when someone enters a bar. Then, when you're ready to leave, you'd have to pick up the keys and then at least someone could tell if you're too drunk to drive! (Well, something like that....something like turning your coat in prior to eating then having to hand in a ticket to get it back. It should be the same with your keys if you're in a bar!) You get the point.

I am assuming that you people that are posting all this mean and rude comments have never lost a close loved one. You all need to stop and think about the things you are saying and how hurtful you are being. I lost my 25 yr old brother to murder 5 years ago and I will tell you what doesnt matter WHAT the cause of death comes as a shock and you are in people need to stop and think about his family and friends and stop downing a guy you have never even met! If he was he shouldnt have been driving...but to sit here and make comments like "I wish Bam and his parents had been in the back seat" that is just HORRIBLE and I pray you never lose a loved one because it is a pain unlike anything in this world...worse than any physical pain you could endure..and the worst part is that it NEVER goes always have a huge gaping hole in your heart and life where that person should be. People will say it gets better with time and it gets worse...every day is another day longer since you saw him or talked to him and your heart is rebroken every morning when you wake up. My heart truely goes out to Ryan's family and his friends...NOBODY should EVER have to go through something like this!
