Drunk-driver accused of killing Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau sports new look in second NJ court appearance

Sean Higgins, who allegedly mowed down NHL star Johnny Gaudreau and his younger brother on a rural New Jersey roadway last week, made his second appearance before a judge Thursday.

Higgins appeared without the suicide vest he was wearing during his initial virtual appearance Aug. 30 and now wears a bushy goatee.

After only a few seconds, the judge postponed the hearing to determine Higgins’ pretrial conditions until Sept. 13, with Higgins remanded back into custody, TMZ reports.

Higgins faces two charges of death by automobile for running over the Calgary Flames and Columbus Blue Jackets star and his brother, Matthew, as the pair rode bikes in Salem County, NJ on Aug. 29. (edited)
