A street racer crashes into a car parked in St. Louis, killing a man

ST. LOUIS (AP) – Police say a driver who appeared to be in a street race collided with a car parked on Sunday morning in St. Louis, killing the man inside him.

St. Louis police said William Moore, 55, died after an Acura TSX collided with his Buick that was parked next to Goodfellow Boulevard. Police said the Acura appeared to be in a race with two other vehicles before the accident happened just before 4 am on Sunday.

The Westward Acura driven by a 21-year-old man tried to overtake an SUV before the accident. Police said the Acura hit the left side of the SUV before hitting Moore’s Buick. The driver of the Acura was ejected in the accident.

Moore later died in a hospital. The other two cars involved in the race stopped after the accident and took the Acura driver to a hospital where he was treated for a broken arm.

The police did not immediately disclose the name of the Acura driver.
