Miley Cyrus Bus Driver Died of Cardiac Arrest

Miley Cyrus
More information has been released regarding the accident involving Miley Cyrus’ tour bus. As Hollyscoop reported earlier, the driver of the bus, 53-year-old William Douglas, was killed in the crash. And now TMZ has gotten a hold of the 911 tape.

In the first call, the caller tells the dispatcher the bus driver is still alive, but "losing color."

Officials are currently investigating whether or not the driver died before the crash occurred ... which would help explain how the bus drifted off the road and then crashed.

In the second call, which sounds like it's being made by a different person, the caller says the driver was suffering cardiac arrest.

Police say there were no obvious signs that alcohol played a factor in the crash, and believe Douglas may have had health-related issues. The matter is still under investigation.

Miley herself has issued a statement regarding Douglas’ death. She wrote on her website, "We are deeply saddened by the loss of Bill 'Uncle Bill' Douglas. Members of our tour are like members of our family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family in the midst of this tragedy. He will truly be missed."

bless him and his family. but why would his death be exploited under miley cyrus headlines??? let him rest. idc if he was her bus driver, let some things stay private and let them grieve in peace. hollywood news like this is pathetic. they'll exploit anything to get a headline. and look at the person below asking about miley cyrus. it's not even about the man that lost his life. obviously she is. and she didn't have to go into detail either on her website, just say they're grieving a loss. have some respect. it's sick.
