Paul Walker, who starred in street-racing blockbuster series The Fast And The Furious, has been killed in a car crash in California.
Ame Van Iden, a publicist for the American actor, confirmed the 40-year-old died in a smash north of Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon.
A statement on Walker's Facebook page said he was a passenger in a friend's car and had been in the area to attend a charity event for his organisation Reach Out Worldwide.
The red Porsche at the scene of the crash "We ... are stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news," it said.
The red Porsche reportedly crashed into a lamp post and burst into flames, killing them both.
Photos from the scene showed a pile of twisted metal and broken windows.
