Warning: The following video contains a graphic scene which some may find disturbing.
When we first watched this dash-cam footage of a speeding Ferrari 458 Italia rear-ending a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, we thought it was just another one of those accidents involving a fast car, but upon closer inspection, it turns out that this story is much more gruesome as the supercar hit a pedestrian before the impact with the sedan.
Sadly, the unnamed pedestrian died from the impact. The 23-year old driver of the Ferrari named Larion Vuokila happens to be the son of Russian billionaire and businessman Alexander Zajonc. He suffered minor injuries and was taken to the hospital before police arrested him. No one else was hurt.
In the video, it is not clear if the unfortunate pedestrian was crossing the road at the moment or if he was standing on the side waiting, nor if the Ferrari driver passed a red light – it doesn’t look like it, though.
Below you will find a description from one of the two videos, both in original form and translated via Google.
