Porsche 911 Driver Allegedly Flees To China After Deadly Crash In USA

About a month after a tragic crash that involved a speeding Porsche 911, it appears the suspected driver has taken an unexpected international vacation. Ting Ye was reportedly behind the wheel when she crashed a Porsche at high speeds in the middle of the night, resulting in the tragic death of her only passenger, Yabao Liu, at the scene.

The wreck occurred at approximately 3:45 a.m. in King County, Washington State. Surveillance footage captured the Porsche 911 traveling at a high speed along 112th Avenue. In a matter of moments, the sports car seemingly lost control, before skidding rapidly towards a concrete barrier, making impact, and soaring into the air as though it was rocket-powered.

“Based on the skid marks and evidence left at the scene that the car was going well in excess of 100 miles an hour… the vehicle hit the barrier there and was actually thrown into the air and hit the side of that bridge where it came to rest,” said the Bellevue Police Department’s (PBD) Public Information Officer Seth Tyler.

According to the police, it wasn’t until some time later that a third party spotted the car and alerted emergency services. Unfortunately, by the time authorities arrived at the scene, Liu had already passed away. At that moment, officers had their suspicions that Ye might have been under the influence of alcohol. She was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Then, she checked herself out sooner than authorities expected. “We were not notified by hospital personnel, my understanding is that she was not going to be released anytime soon due to her injuries, and so we were under the assumption she was going to remain at the hospital for some time,” Tyler said.

The department tracked her going over the border into Canada before hopping on a flight back to China. Now, there’s no way to bring her to justice unless she happens to travel back to a country where the USA has extradition agreements.

“We just want to make it clear to Ms. Ye that she is wanted for vehicular homicide, we need her to come back to speak with us,” Tyler said, “She has a warrant in the system if she ever tries to enter the United States, she’s going to be immediately arrested. We need her to just come back, take care of this, so the family of the victim can move on.”

Why it took so long for the police to issue a warrant, test Ye for her blood alcohol level, or arrest her is unknown at this time.
