A 26-year-old Burbank man was killed yesterday morning when he was ejected from his sports car after a wheel came off and the vehicle overturned at the junction of the San Diego and Harbor Freeways in Carson authorities reported.
The California Highway Patrol identified him as Raymond James Moss of 530 Rosemary Lane.
A spokesman for the CHP said Moss was south- bound on the San Diego Freeways when the left rear tire of his car came off. As a result, the vehicle swerved into a guard overturned and the impact ejected Moss out of the vehicle, the spokesman said. The auto then caught on fire and was engulfed in flames, closing down two lanes of the freeway.
Moss was taken to Harbor General but he was declared dead on arrival, the spokesman said.
