A SHOCKING video has captured the moment a driver lost control of her Porsche, crashing into a cement barricade at 100 mph and killing her passenger.
Seattle police are searching for 26-year-old Ting Ye, who they said fled to China following the September 30 incident.
Police have charged Ye with vehicular homicide.
Traffic cameras captured the harrowing moments that led up to 27-year-old Yabao Liu’s death, as Ye’s Porsche is seen zig-zagging through several intersections before sticking a cement barricade.
After hitting the barricade, Ye’s white Porsche went airborne before landing upside down, according to traffic footage obtained by local NBC affiliate King 5.
When first responders arrived at the scene at around 4 am on September 30, they discovered Liu dead and noticed a strong odor of alcohol coming from Ye, according to court records.
Ye was taken to the hospital to be treated for her injuries.
Due to the severity of the crash, it took police time to determine who had been driving, King 5 reported.

However, during the investigation, Ye invoked her right not to speak with investigators.
When Ye was released from the hospital on October 6, she crossed the border into Vancouver, Canada, three days later, court records said.
While in Vancouver, the 26-year-old sought the help of an acquaintance and boarded a flight to China, according to records.
On October 23, a judge issued a bench warrant for Ye’s arrest after she failed to appear for her arraignment.
“At that point, she was not free to leave, but she had already left,” Bellevue police spokesperson Officer Seth Tyler told King 5.
If Ye enters the United States again, the warrant will be flagged, Tyler said.
Authorities will process Ye’s warrant for an Interpol Red Notice, which flags any travel to a country with which the US has an extradition treaty.
The case has since been turned over to the US Department of Justice, according to the news outlet.
Liu was a Chinese national. It’s unclear what her relationship was with Ye.
