According to TMZ, Walker was in the passenger seat of a red porsche that was being driven by his longtime friend and business partner, Roger Rodas. The details of exactly what happened are still being investigated, but at some point Rodas lost control of the vehicle which then hit a tree and caught on fire just moments later. Walker has been shooting Fast & Furious 7 in Atlanta, Georgia and was on a break to spend time with his friends, family and 15 year old daughter over the holiday. Walker has appeared in several notable Hollywood projects throughout the years like Pleasantville, Varsity Blues, and Flags Of Our Fathers. However, he was probably best known for playing the undercover investigator, Bryan O'Connor in the Fast and Furious films. I think it goes without saying that his loss will leave a huge vacancy in a franchise that has known and loved him since his first appearance in the first Fast film in 2001. Walker was currently shooting the seventh Fast and Furious installment,
