The deadly crash unfolded around 5 a.m., Fox 4 reported. The victim, Kendrick Lyons, was struck by one of two racing Camaros, according to the station.
Lyons’ mother said he was driving to donate plasma and had celebrated his birthday with the family the night before.
Lyons was ejected from his vehicle and killed. The impact of the crash had sent Lyons’ car into rotation before it caught fire, police said.
