The woman who died in a fiery crash that authorities blame on ex-Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III driving drunk at racetrack speeds burned to death, the county coroner in Las Vegas said Tuesday. Tina Tintor,23, of Las Vegas, “died from thermal injuries due to a motor vehicle collision on Nov.2,” according to a statement from Clark County Coroner Melanie Rouse that was released through a county spokesman. “Other significant conditions contributing to her death were inhalation of products of combustion, fractures of the nasal bones, right sided ribs… left forearm and (chest),” the statement said. “The manner of her death was accidental.” Ruggs,22, is accused of causing the pre-dawn crash by driving drunk at speeds up to 156 mph (251 kph) with his girlfriend in his Corvette sports car before it slammed into the rear of Tintor’s Toyota Rav4 on a residential street where the speed limit is 45 mph (72 kph).
