Videos of illegal car race precede crash killing 2, injuring 5 in Miami Gardens

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – A witness recorded a video showing a reckless driver just before a crash that killed a man and a woman and injured five people in Miami-Dade County.

Witnesses suspect the crash was related to an illegal car race.

The grieving families identified the two dead as Lubman Lawrence, a 64-year-old father of two, and Taiice Davis, a 42-year-old mother of four.

Noberta Morales, Lawrence’s ex-wife, described him as a hard-working man who was outgoing and reliable.

Shazz Browne, Davis’ aunt, described her as a dedicated mother.

The crash was about 2 a.m., on Saturday, at Northwest 183rd Street and 38th Court in Miami Gardens.

On Tuesday night, friends and loved ones gathered at the crash site and held a vigil, many still in shock, in pain and full of unanswered questions about what happened that night.

Investigators are still trying to determine if car racing played a role in the crash.

Detectives are asking anyone with information about the fatal multi-vehicle crash to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
