The Ghost Inside Drummer Loses Leg Following Tragic Bus Crash

Last November saw tragedy strike California metalcore crew the Ghost Inside, who were involved in a major highway collision between their tour bus and an 18-wheeler near El Paso, TX. Along with the tragic deaths of both drivers, the band were seriously injured in the crash. Sadly, the group's drummer, Andrew Tkaczyk, has now confirmed that he has lost a leg as result of the accident.

Tkaczyk's confirmed the news today over Instagram. You can see his post below.
 

 

So the rumors are true everyone! Unfortunately I did lose my leg in this accident. This is one injury among many others such as fractures in my ribs, spine, and hip along with some ligament tears in my rotator cuff and Labrum. I have remained in positive and good spirits since I woke up from a 10 day coma in November to the sight of my missing leg. Not going to let it stop me. I don't care what anyone says. It's a long road ahead, but I WILL play drums again. Can't wait to get back on the kit. Couldn't have dealt with this without the love and support from my brothers in TGI & crew, friends, fans and family. Thank you all ❤️
