Earlier this afternoon, we published a story indicating that the children from Tuesday's fatal car accident had died. We were given this information from both the Bulloch County Coroner's Office and the Georgia State Patrol. It is our editorial policy that we do not publish such information without official confirmation.
At this time, the boys remain on life support while decisions are made about possible organ donation. No decision has yet been made, and we have removed our story.
We acknowledge that we should have not only made this information more clear but also waited to share it. We understand what a sad and stressful time this is for all involved. We are sorry for the confusion and hurt that this article caused, especially for the Fields family. At Grice Connect, we are dedicated to supporting and connecting our community, and this time, we made a mistake. We ask your forgiveness and appreciate your support.
We also believe in miracles and join this family in praying for one for these two boys.
Our hearts are broken for this family, and we will continue to respect their wishes during this very difficult time.
Please visit the family's GoFundMe and make a donation if you are able.
