This took place in Viña del mar, Chile, in December 17th 2021, during an illegal street race.
Kristofer Fallaque was a 39-year-old Peruvian man that moved to Chile looking for better oppotunities for himself and his family; he was married and had a daughter.
In the very early hours of the morning Kristofer tried to cross the Camino Internacional Street; when he attempted to cross the street he was run over by one of the speeding vehicles in the race, a blue BMW, killing him instantly; after running Kristofer over the person driving the BMW tried to flee, but because of state of the vehicle after the impact, they were only able to drive 1km before being stopped by the people that witnessed the incident until the police arrived.
AFTERMATH
(I also found the aftermath of the blue BMW)
The BMW driver was swiftly taken into police custody, and they were later put on house arrest while they awaited trial; i did not find any information on who this person was or what their sentence was but we can assume that they were convicted for involuntary manslaughter, and that carries a sentence of 12 months to 8 years in prison with possibility of perole; it can also include a fine along with the prison sentence (i'm not a lawyer, and i truly hope i did not commit any mistakes while writing this specific part).
PERSONAL NOTE
In every video post i do (excluding Effortposts) i also like to do a little bit of research to give the video some context and if possible a backstory, although in this case i feel like it got a little bit too extensive. This post is not meant to be an Effortpost, because i personally consider it did not take that much effort for me to make (i hope this doesn't sound like i'm bragging or something), but if the admins consider this does count as an effort post then so be it. While i was doing my small research i did not spect the backstory to be this tragic, and this case also really SHOWED me how dangerous an illegal street race can be. In links below there are also statements given by Kristofer's family members and acquaintances, so if you speak spanish i strongly recommend you to checking them.
IMPORTANT CORRECTION (05/05/2024): At first i thought that he was unaware that there was a street race taking place but recently i realised he was well aware because he was invited by his coworkers; i also realised that he was drunk and he tried to cross the street to avoid the police. I'm sorry for not giving the correct information, in the future i will be more careful.

NOVO HAMBURGO, BRAZIL – APRIL 10, 2024 The 25-year-old biker went for a ride with his 22-year-old girlfriend, Natiel Vitória Rodrigues. However, a serious accident occurred in the Lomba Grande neighbourhood when they collided with a car at high speed. The man was taken to hospital with minor injuries and is out of danger of life. His girlfriend wasn't so lucky. As the video shows, the asphalt massacred her. Jen rolls in pain in a pool of blood and with her body torn apart. Death occurred a short time later.

As their social networks show, they both loved the adrenaline rush associated with motorcycles. Very often they risked tricks that would made your heart stop. It was only a matter of time before something like this happened.

Aftermath:
On 11 January 2023, the driver of a black BMW X3 deliberately rammed his vehicle into a crowd of pedestrians and motorists on Tianhe Road in Guangzhou, China, killing six people and injuring 29 others. 22-year-old Wen Qingyun was arrested in connection to the attack, sentenced to death, and subsequently executed on 19 April 2024.
The crash took place on Wednesday during the evening rush hour at a busy junction in the southern city of 19 million.
"He deliberately drove into the people who were waiting for the traffic light. He rammed the car into them maliciously. After that, he made a U-turn and hit people again," an eyewitness told local outlet Hongxin News.
"He wasn't driving too quickly, but some people couldn't run away in time because they wouldn't have known he was hitting people deliberately."
The man also reportedly drove into a traffic police officer and his motorcycle, but the officer managed to escape.
One widely circulated clip shows a young girl lying on the ground at the scene of the incident, while a woman said to be her mother is seen by her side wailing.
Another eyewitness described the chaos of the aftermath on Weibo, the Chinese version of Twitter. The person said that an hour after the incident, the site was still filled with ambulances and traffic police "and they had not moved all the injured and the bodies from the scene".
"The scene was too tragic and I couldn't bear seeing it. I felt so sad that I wanted to throw up whenever I heard the siren of the ambulance," the person said.
The incident has sparked public anger, with many expressing sorrow that it happened in the lead-up to Chinese New Year, a time for family reunions.
"The victims could be a girl who dressed up meticulously to go on a date… It could be a food deliveryman who earned five yuan after rushing an order. It could be a father who wanted to go home and have dinner with children. It could be a child who was happily shopping," one Weibo user wrote.
Many noted that the man drove a luxury car and had thrown money into the air, and asked if he came from a rich and powerful family.
The incident quickly became a trending topic on Weibo on Wednesday, but it later disappeared from the "hot searches" list, leading users to accuse the platform of censorship.
There have been similar recent incidents. In February 2022, a driver ploughed a mini truck into people in the southern province of Fujian, killing three and injuring nine.
Earlier this week, a hotel guest in Shanghai deliberately drove his car into the lobby following an argument with staff. Nobody was injured in that incident.
Timeline of the attack:
-Intersection at Tianhe Road and Tiyu East Road: Multiple pedestrians were struck
-Intersection at Tiyu East Road and Tianhe South 1st Road: A woman crossing the sidewalk was hit
-Intersection at Tianhe Road and Tiyu East Road: Several pedestrians were knocked down
-Near Shipaiqiao Bus Station on the south side of Tianhe Road: Three people were struck; two delivery drivers, and a pedestrian riding a bicycle
-Intersection at Tianhe South 2nd Road and Tianhe East Road: More pedestrians, including a woman on the sidewalk, were hit

Bird's-eye view and pov
Dan Wheldon was a charismatic Englishman who won the Indianapolis 500 in 2005 and 2011. He took a gamble at the age of 19 and moved to the United States to further his career, and quickly found success in “stepping-stone” series, progressing rapidly. Between 2002 and 2011, Wheldon had 128 starts in IndyCar races and won 16, including the 2005 race in which he reclaimed the lead from Danica Patrick on Lap 194 and outlasted a charging Vitor Meira. His Hollywood-like win at the 100th Anniversary “500” in 2011, in which rookie driver J.R. Hildebrand hit the wall exiting Turn 4 on the final lap, allowing Wheldon to narrowly beat Hildebrand's wounded car to the finish line, was one of the most improbable, emotional victories in racing history. Wheldon finished second to Tony Kanaan for the 2004 IndyCar title, won it in 2005, and tied Sam Hornish Jr. in points for 2006 but lost the championship on a tiebreaker. Earlier that year, Wheldon won the Rolex 24-Hours at Daytona with teammates Scott Dixon and Casey Mears. Wheldon's record at IMS was stellar: In addition to two wins, Wheldon finished third in 2004, fourth in 2006 (after leading 148 laps) and was runner-up in 2009 and 2010. Tragically, he lost his life in a multi-car accident at Las Vegas on October 16, 2011.
