Fast & Furious actor "PAUL WALKER" died in a car crash this
afternoon when his friend lost control of a Porsche GT and collided with a street light.
The star's representatives and official Facebook page confirmed his death this morning.
Walker, 40, was a passenger in the high-powered super-
car when it spun out of control in Santa Clarita at 3:30pm
today.
The LA County Sheriff's department has confirmed that
two people died in a collision at 3:30pm today, but no
names have yet been released.
However, representatives for the actor have confirmed
that Paul Walker was one of the two men who died this
afternoon.
'It is with a truly heavy heart that we must confirm that
Paul Walker passed away today in a tragic car accident
while attending a charity event for his organization Reach
Out Worldwide,' reads a Facebook update on Walker's
official page.
'He was a passenger in a friend's car, in which both lost
their lives. We appreciate your patience as we too are
stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news.
Thank you for keeping his family and friends in your
prayers during this very difficult time. We will do our best
to keep you apprised on where to send condolences. - #
TeamPW.'
Walker was reportedly an investor in the Always Evolving
auto shop in Valencia, California and was in the area for
a car show to support the Philippines typhoon relief
effort.
Witnesses at the crash scene posted video of the site on
YouTube, showing debris from the crash and emergency
workers cordoning off the area.
Photographs from the scene show a completely wrecked,
burnt out shell of a car.
Friends of the star told a local newspaper that they 'went
through fire extinguishers' in a futile bid to fight the blaze
that engulfed the car after the crash.
'We all ran around and jumped in cars and grabbed fire
extinguishers and immediately went to the vehicle. It was
engulfed in flames. There was nothing. They were
trapped. Employees, friends of the shop. We tried. We
tried.' Antonio Holmes told the Santa Clarita Signal.
