Walker's publicist Ame Van Iden confirmed the actor's death. A statement on Walker's Facebook page said he was a passenger in a friend's car, and that Walker was in the area to attend a charity event for his organization Reach Out Worldwide.

The Sheriff's Department said that speed was a factor in the crash.

The Santa Clarita Valley Signal reported that the Porsche crashed into a light pole and tree and burst into flames. The fundraiser, to benefit victims of Typhoon Haiyan, took place at a nearby race car shop. Attendees rushed to put out the flames with fire extinguishers to no avail.

Woah...that's a pretty brutal crash. And leaving behind a daughter...terrible.

Leaves an ominous shadow over that Stern F&F machine that's coming down the pipe.

What an awful looking wreck, and that appears to be a city street, not a highway. Can just imagine the speed involved. Really sad, but appears reckless and preventable.

The fact that most people are unaware that he was even doing this kind of stuff shows his real intentions behind it. Thankfully, the group is dedicated to continue fulfilling his vision.
