'The Fast & Furious" star Paul Walker tragically died in a car accident over the weekend. We have the details. More Celebrity News ►► http://bit.ly/SubClevverNews Fast and Furious star, Paul Walker, was involved in a fatal car accident this Saturday afternoon, November 30th. He was just 40 years old. Walker, who we have come to know and love as the undercover detective, Brian O'Connor in the Fast & Furious franchise, was killed in a tragic car accident in Santa Clarita, California. Walker was attending a charity event that he helped put together for his organization Reach Out Worldwide. The event was to raise money to support the typhoon relief efforts in the Philippines. The exact cause of the accident is still being investigated, however TMZ is reporting that Paul was in the passenger seat of his friend and business partner Roger Rodas' red porsche when the two were leaving the event. Rodas apparently lost control of the vehicle which then hit a tree and caught on fire just moments later. Just a few hours later, Paul Walker's reps released a statement via his official twitter page saying "It is with a truly heavy heart that we must confirm that Paul Walker passed away today in a tragic car accident...He was a passenger in a friends car, in which both lost their lives. We appreciate your patience as we too are stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news." As soon as the news broke, condolences from celebrity friends and colleagues of Walker flooded twitter. His Varsity Blues co-star, James Van Der Beek tweeted "I just remember him as being so effortlessly golden. He had that way about him, that "thing." Ryan Phillippe, who worked with Walker on Flags of our Fathers said quote "Paul was a good dude. Conscientious & not caught up in Hollywood. He knew there was more to life & lived like it." Paul's Into The Blue co-star, Jessica Alba tweeted "he was a lovely person -so sweet and grounded. My heart goes out to his family." Jordana Brewster, who played Walker's love interest in the Fast films tweeted, "Paul was pure light. I cannot believe he is gone." Paul was currently shooting the seventh installment to the Fast and Furious franchise, alongside Vin Diesel. Diesel also expressed his sympathies via twitter saying "My heart is hurting so sad.Paul walker was a good man.RIP my friend...Sorry to the Walker family." Dwayne The Rock Johnson said "All my strength, love & faith to the Walker family during this heartbreaking time. We find our strength.. in his light. Love you brother." We will certainly miss Paul's presence on the big screen, and I think it's safe to say that the world will miss his generosity for his efforts to help those who are less fortunate. Our most heartfelt prayers and condolences go out to his friends and family. For ClevverNews, I'm Erin Robinson. Thanks for watching.
