Shortly after leaving in Rodas red Porsche Carrera GT, the vehicle lost control and crashed into a light pole and tree in Valencia, Santa Clarita, California and burst into flames. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department declared the two deceased at the scene. Coverage was first reported by celebrity website TMZ and by major news outlets after Walkers publicist, Ame van Iden, confirmed early reports of his death.
