Ryan Minett, a Beaver County man who was killed over the weekend after allegedly being dragged by his girlfriend’s vehicle, will live on through the life of his best friend and neighbor.
After Minett died on Saturday as a result of an auto accident in Cranberry Township, his family donated his kidney to Minett’s best friend and neighbor- 27-year-old Andrew Dietz, according to our news partners at WPXI-TV.
Andrew suffers from a rare kidney disease and needed a transplant. When doctors discovered his and Minett’s blood types matched, Andrew was moved to the top of the donor list and had surgery over the weekend.
He is recovering in a Pittsburgh hospital.
