The Fast and the Furious Actor Paul Walker has Died

Paul Walker, star of The Fast and the Furious, has died in a terrible car crash along with his driver. The car he was in crashed and exploded in Santa Clarita, Calif.

Police arrived at the scene to find the car engulfed in flames and two bodies were eventually pulled out. They were pronounced dead right then and there. It appears to have been a solo crash, according to cops and witnesses, but no one knows the details yet.

Word has it he was on his way to a charity event as well. It’s a shame, really. You can be on top of the world one day, then gone the next. Paul Walker was a young, vibrant actor. The Fast and the Furious was the highlight of his career, but he was definitely more than that.

His passing is hauntingly familiar to that of James Dean. I hope his family is doing okay. Losing an elderly is sad, but when someone gets randomed out by a freak accident, it’s shocking.
