Just witnessed an FR-S in an accident
 
I was just picking up groceries from Ralphs and around 10PM, I heard tire screeches and loud thuds. I rushed outside and witnessed a WRB WRX and a black Integra speed to the scene of the accident. The driver and passengers of the cars got out, looked at the raven black FR-S and sped away once they heard sirens. The firefighters arrived at the scene and realized they required the Jaws of Life to rescue the driver and the two passengers of the car. The front passenger got out on his own but the rear passenger was unable to get out until the car was cut open. The driver was pulled from the car and was unconscious and rushed to the hospital. I hope it wasn't anybody from here.

Here are pictures I took

Yeah! The rear windshield was busted and his head was out. Luckily he sunk into his seat or ducked his head during the accident. After the firefighters got the jaws of life and removed the roof, he was able to get up and walk.

You mentioned the other cars on the scene, was the accident due to racing you think?

The behavior of the people in the two other cars as described by the OP, it could be. To go check and then hightail it out of there once the sirens are heard? yeah theres something fishy going on.

Hopefully everyone turns out alright. It sucks that this happened because of something stupid.
