An out-of-control car killed one spectator and injured several others who had gathered to watch an illegal street race on Christmas Day in Carson, California.

Video posted to social media appeared to show a black Cadillac sedan racing with a blue car before the two vehicles crashed into each other near a crowd of people around 1:30 p.m near East 230th and Banning streets.
