Daniel Ray George had just celebrated his 21st birthday when he was killed in a car accident involving one other vehicle along Goodman Road near I-55 in Southaven last Thursday night. Daniel's mom and dad say his girlfriend was with him when the crash happened. She is still in the hospital. The grieving parents are now faced with many unanswered questions.
