Family mourns man killed in crash with runaway driver

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Family members of 48-year-old Guy Shearer, the innocent man killed on Thursday by a runaway driver, say their loss doesn't feel real.

Police say 33-year-old Roger Harris crashed into Shearer's car while Harris was trying to evade authorities.

Shearer's truck was found terribly damaged after the crash.

"There's no tire on the passenger rear end and you can tell that the car had to have spun multiple times," says Jacob Shearer, his son.

According to detectives, Harris led police on a high-speed chase after they pulled him over and saw a gun.

Jacob says his father was a hard-working
