We got more details of the crash that killed him from the veteran Hollywood reporter GaleMurphy.

"Paul Walker was traveling in a car with a friend. They were coming from a fund raiser. Andbystanders or eyewitnesses seem to evaluate the situation as that it appeared the car wentout of control, crashed, went on fire, fire department was called. Both Walker and a quotunidentified other person, both passed away at the scene. And he was such a nice guy. Hewas incredible eye candy. I had a wonderful time with him talking to him. He's a local boy. Imean, I was on local radio here in LA and we just had lots to chat about. He was very smart ina lot of ways. He was in this incredibly successful franchise the Fast and Furious all six of them,which was a massive hit internationally. And you never read about him in the tabloids. Hemanaged to stay away from the feeding frenzy. And I have a lot of respect for anybody whosework is so use-oriented."
