Today’s video covers the tragic and untimely passing of Star Trek actor Anton Yelchin. The 27-year-old’s body was discovered early Sunday morning, pinned by his 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee against a brick pillar at the bottom of his driveway. That year of Jeep was among the 1.1 million vehicles Fiat-Chrysler recalled this April for a confusing shift selector which resulted in a number of cars to roll backwards. It’s unclear whether that happened in this case, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility.
