January 13, 2008 - A dangerous drag race in a Pratt City industrial park came to a horrifying end Sunday evening. Police say one onlooker was run over and dragged, and in the chaos that ensued another person was shot multiple times.
Police are still sorting out the details of the wreck and subsequent shooting, but one thing is certain: Two people were killed and their deaths are both considered homicides.
An amateur photographer posted the video on Youtube. It purportedly captured the moments before and after two drag racing cars came barreling down Republic Boulevard and lost control in Pratt City, Sunday.
Police say an onlooker, 29-year-old Lonnie King was struck by one of the vehicles. Speaking Sunday night, Captain Herman Hinton described what police were hearing from witnesses.
