Ryan Fellows Dies In a Car Accident
It was announced on the show’s social media accounts:
“The ‘Street Outlaws’ family is heartbroken by the accident that led to the tragic death of Ryan Fellows. We extend our deepest sympathy to Ryan’s loved ones as they process this sudden and devastating loss.”
TMZ claims that the accident occurred during the eighth of the night’s nine races, between Fellows and another driver.
It was reported by TMZ that Fellow’s gold Nissan 240z slid and caught fire after he lost control of the vehicle.
A GoFundMe for his family described Fellows as “admired for toughness and a tireless will to tackle the hurdles before him” and a “passionate car guy.”
We contacted OSHA, and they told us, “OSHA officials were dispatched to the site and have opened an inspection. No, we don’t give interviews about open investigations due to the statutory requirement that details of open/ongoing investigations remain confidential.”
We also contacted the Nevada Department of Transportation, who confirmed that “NDOT provided a permit to the Street Outlaws TV show to allow for the closure of Las Vegas Blvd north of U.S. 93 during filming. We do not have additional information related to the crash at this time. Our thoughts are with the victim and his family.”
