YouTuber Corey La Barrie Dead Following Car Crash

YouTube star Corey La Barrie has died on his 25th birthday following a car crash in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Police Department is not confirming the identity of the driver or passenger, but a spokesman confirms an incident occurred on Sunday at around 9:30 p.m. at the corner of Huston St. and Carpenter Ave. At this time, the driver of the vehicle is being treated at a local hospital and the passenger has been pronounced dead. LAPD said it will release identity of the driver after that person is "booked."

Prior to his death, La Barrie, who had over 330,000 subscribers on YouTube and over 200,000 followers on Instagram, had been celebrating his birthday on social media. In a series of Instagram Stories that are still up on his page, La Barrie is seen jamming out to 2 Chainz "Birthday Song" while drinking champagne.

La Barrie also posted a vlog on Saturday, which he titled "Deleting This Video In 24 Hours...." during which he told viewers he would be live-streaming his birthday festivities on Twitch.
