On February 16, 2008, a crowd of spectators apparently watching a street car race were hit by a vehicle.

Eyewitnesses told the Associated Press that a crowd of roughly 50 people stood at the side of the road to watch two cars race when a third, trailing vehicle, with no headlights, plowed into the group.
