Reply #69: And then we have the spectators who won't talk to the cops

[RamboLiberal]

A college student who was at Saturday's tragic street race where eight people were killed-on Route 210, in Accokeek has sent me a video of the first race that occurred that early morning.

It was the second race at the very same location that ended with a third car coming up behind the crowd, that had spilled into the street, and plowed into the unsuspecting spectators.

About 20 men who were watching the races agreed to meet with 9NEWS NOW at a secret location in Maryland Monday to tell us what they saw.

They are afraid of talking to police because they fear charges will be brought against them for being part of the illegal street racing activity. They admit that for years they have been drivers, spectators and bettors at the races.

They claim the 20 year old driver of the Crown Victoria that slammed into them was driving at a high rate of speed and didn't have his lights on. Prince George's County Police say thus far there is no evidence to show the driver violated any laws. For more information go to Bruce Johnson's Blog.
