The man who was driving managed to get out and scream for help as he tried to get the woman out, but she was trapped, Houston police said.
Investigators say the fiery crash a 21-year-old woman was killed in was fed by the fireworks they believe were inside the trunk.
Investigators said the flames fed by what they believe to have been fireworks that exploded in the trunk, making it dangerous for firefighters to put out. Investigators say the driver lost control of the car and hit a tree, splitting the car in half. Then, the car caught on fire. A witness and a police officer stopped to help by using a fire extinguisher. That's when the fireworks began to explode, making things dangerous and more difficult.ABC13 asked police if rain was a factor in the crash, and an investigator told us the roads were wet but that everything is still being looked into.
