Sad news now, particularly for fans of the "Fast & Furious" franchise 1. Veteran actor Paul Walker, the star of the series, has died in a car crash north of Los Angeles.
A statement on Walker’s Facebook page says he was a passenger in a friend’s car, a red Porsche that collided with a light pole and a tree, then burst into flames. The accident claimed both their lives. The star was said to be attending a charity event for his organization "Reach Out Worldwide."
