This is the terrifying moment a semi-truck plowed into spectators at an illegal street race in Mexic
This is the terrifying moment a semi-truck plowed into spectators at an illegal street race in Mexico and killed three people, including a minor, and left 12 others injured.
Footage showed hundreds of people lined up on both sides of Lázaro Cardenas Street when the driver of one of the two trucks lost control just seconds following the start of the clandestine race in Epazoyucan, Hidalgo on Sunday.
A woman could be seen hugging a child as they sat on the ground as the trucks to charge down the street while a man walked nearby by selling balloons.
Others stood to the side peeking over the side of the road trying to get a glance of the speeding semi-trucks.

As the trucks sped down the avenue, the vehicle on the left landed swayed violently and jumped off course.
A bystander captured the truck barreling into several men while a male spectator somehow narrowly avoided being hit and remained standing near the side of a building.
It is unknown if the person who filmed the footage was hurt.
The victims were identified as a 12-year-old boy and two adults aged 22 and 42. Their names have not been released.

'The necessary permission to hold the event was not granted,' the city said.

Arroyo revealed that an Audi was backing out of its parking spot when the Mercedes Benz clipped it from behind before he plowed into it.
