Ryan Fellows, one of the stars of Discovery+'s Street Outlaws: Fastest in America, has died in a fiery car crash while filming the show.
Fellows was racing another driver on Sunday morning outside Las Vegas in a scheduled race for the show when he lost control of his vehicle near the finish line, TMZ reports. Fellows was driving a gold Nissan 240z, which rolled over and caught fire. Onlookers were unable to get him out of the car on time.
A spokesperson for Discovery released a statement saying, "The Street Outlaws family is heartbroken by the accident that led to the tragic death of Ryan Fellows. We extend our deepest sympathy to Ryan's loved ones as they process this sudden and devastating loss."
Earlier this year, Street Outlaws star JJ Da Boss and his wife, Tricia, were involved in another crash while filming for the show. Tricia was hospitalized at the time.
Fellows is survived by his wife, Liz, and his two kids, Josiah and Olivia.
