A dramatic fiery motorcycle crash in San Antonio, Texas, was caught on camera after a rider lost control, slammed into a curb, and burst into flames.

What happened

The crash happened around 4:30 p.m. at Oakwood and Wooden Fox in the Stonecreek subdivision on the Far Northeast Side. Surveillance video shows the motorcycle sliding before striking the curb and igniting, while children standing nearby ran away from the fireball.
