Three former Texas high school athletes dead after police chase ends in fiery crash: report




 

Three former Texas high school student-athletes died in a fiery crash after a police chase, according to a report.

Phabian Bynaum, 19, Davarius Bynaum, 20, and Malik Thomas, 21, who previously attended Cameron High School died in the crash on Thursday.

Phabian Bynaum was driving more than 20 miles over the speed limit on US 190 between Cameron and Milano, Milam County Sheriff Mike Clore told FOX 7 Austin. He said one of his deputies attempted to stop the vehicle unsuccessfully, and that a chase began.

Bynaum lost control of the vehicle as he attempted to pass another car, a Texas Department of Public Safety press release states. The vehicle then crashed into a tree, barreled through a fence, flipped and caught fire in a field.
