Someone Has Hacked Ryan Dunn's Twitter Account

The family of deceased Jackass star Ryan Dunn are trying to stop "disgusting" hackers posting tweets to his Twitter account.

The tweets come after previous hackings that said he was 'chilling' with Tupac in heaven earlier this year.

In the new ones, the hackers put 'Just met Harambe, real nice gorilla'.

In case you've been asleep throughout all of 2016, the tweet is a nod to fallen silverback Harambe, formerly of Cincinatti Zoo now another star in the sky.

Dunn's mother, Linda, told TMZ the posts are not at the hands of any friends or family and that she's none the wiser about how his account had gotten hacked, which they kept up following his death from a car crash in June 2011, when he drove his Porsche into a off-road wood at 130 MPH while under the influence of alcohol.

Linda has reached out to Twitter to get the tweets removed to no avail.
