street racing accident on red bug lake road tuesday night
just saw it on the news... its a "breaking story" ... from the pictures it looks like some mustang was racing some other car, smashed into an innocent car. the mustang looks like it was torn in half, the other car that was racing ran away but then he turned himself in.
the kid who ran is 17 years old. no details on the other drivers or what this 17 year old was driving. people on tv said 4 injured 3 seriously.
great. here comes another crackdown...

Red Bug Lake is open again and police will continue interviewing people and investigating this crash. Families around there say two cars were racing when all this happened, but so far police will only say speeding was involved.
Casselberry Police say a Mustang and an Acura were side-by-side one another, speeding east on Red Bug Lake Road. The drivers are both teenagers, 16 and 17.
At Eagle Circle, a 26-year-old woman in a Camry was turning into her subdivision at Lago Vista. Witnesses say she had no time to get out of the way. She had to cut out of her car.
So far, we've only been told four people are in critical condition, including the 16-year-old driver of the Mustang and two other juveniles in that car. The 26-year-old woman was airlifted to the hospital.
Police say no charges will be filed until they're done investigating. Families say speeding there has been a problem for some time.
