#1 Post by rustbucket » Sun Jan 13, 2008 11:04 pm

today in bham, a car from florida and one from tn, had a $10,000 race in birmingham on a industrial road. The cars wrecked killing bystanders and if that wasnt bad enough, a altercation between the guy holding the money and another man lead to a gunfight with one of them being killed.
both cars run 5.0 second 8th mile and the street was lined with bystanders.
its a sad day :(Top Local Stories Last Edited: Sunday, 13 Jan 2008, 10:07 PM CST Created: Sunday, 13 Jan 2008, 10:07 PM CST One Person Hit, Another Shot During Street Racing

Street Racing Results in Two Deaths Sunday

Birmingham Police have confirmed that two people are dead Sunday night after rival street racing teams from out of town brought violence to Birmingham's streets. Police say two vehicles, reportedly from Tennessee and Florida, were street racing Sunday afternoon on Republic Boulevard off of Avenue W in Ensley. Witnesses told police one man was videotaping the race when one of the cars hit him. Investigators believe that one of the men involved in the race wanted to try and help the victim while some of the crowd allegedly wanted to leave the victim behind. Then, the man wanting to help was allegedly shot. Both the person struck by the car and the man offering to help have died. Police initially said both victims were from out of state, but Birmingham Police have not released their identities at this time.
