Dunn's blood alcohol level was 0.196% and "no drugs of abuse" were detected, the report states. The legal limit is 0.08% in Pennsylvania, where Dunn died.

The report also says Dunn's vehicle, a Porsche, was traveling between 132 to 140 miles per hour at the time of the crash. That's far faster than previous estimates of 100 mph.

After initially stating that toxicology results would take four to six weeks to deliver, the West Goshen Township Police Department provided the report Wednesday.

Early reports from Barnaby's, the West Chester, Pennsylvania, bar that Dunn was at before the accident, indicated that the star had three beers and three shots of liquor.

The incredibly fast turnaround from the police department in the Dunn case may be associated with the growing media attention -- online and off -- related to the crash and the reaction from celebrities.

Film critic Roger Ebert has been criticized for insensitively remarking on Dunn's fate on Twitter and Facebook. His Facebook page was briefly removed following complaints about his comment. Since then, Ebert has attempted to clarify his remarks, noting that the timing of his tweet may have been insensitive, but he still stood by them.

Dunn's friends and family also posted remembrances on Twitter (see gallery below).
