Gabriel Salazar, a 19 year-old TikTok sensation, has died in a car crash.
On Sunday, September 26, Salazar and three passengers were involved in a police chase that killed all four.
A Crystal City police officer attempted to pull over Salazar’s vehicle during a traffic stop.
At first, tire deflation devices were thrown out on the road, unsuccessfully, in order to get the white Camaro to stop.
It is said that Salazar overcorrected and crossed several lanes before ending up in a ditch. The car had rolled over and caught on fire.
Salazar, from San Antonio, was pronounced deceased on the scene. The three passengers, from Mexico, were Jose Luis Jimenez-Mora, 41, Jose Molina-Lara, 23, and Sergio Espinoza-Flores, 36.
$38,000 has been raised through a GoFund Me page to help Salazar’s family.
An investigation into the crash is on-going.
