Twenty-eight fans were injured, one very seriously, when pieces of Kyle Larson’s Chevrolet pierced the Turn Four catch fencing and flew into the crowd during a violent multi-car wreck at Daytona International Speedway Saturday afternoon.
Fourteen injured fans were treated on-site; seven more were sent to the Halifax Medical Center on the Speedway grounds, and six went to Halifax Health Center in Port Orange. All of these were in stable condition as of 7 p.m., according to NASCAR.com.
One spectator was struck in the head by debris, resulting in an injury described as “life-threatening.” This patient was taken to Florida Hospital Memorial Center; no further information is currently available.
