<\/div>\n

US actor Paul Walker, who starred in the Fast & Furious series of action films, has been killed in a car crash in California.<\/p>\n

Walker, 40, was a passenger in a Porsche sports car driven by a friend \u2013 who also died \u2013 when it crashed north of Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Walker was said to be attending a charity event at the time.<\/p>\n

He starred in all but one of the films in the Fast & Furious franchise, the sixth of which opened in May.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Walker also starred in the suspense drama Hours, a movie that is set for release this month.<\/p>\n

Another Fast & Furious star, the rapper Ludacris, wrote: \u201cYour humble spirit was felt from the start, wherever you blessed your presence you always left a mark, we were like brothers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Walker began acting as a young boy when his mother, a model, took him to auditions for commercials.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
