"Next thing I know, I hit the ground. I scrambled out to get my car keys to unlock my back door because I've seen fire, and I just hopped out the window in the back," Singleton told Fox 35.

Following the incident, the two vehicles were towed away alongside Singleton's car which was also severely damaged from the crash.
"My windshields are busted out." Singleton explained. "And the back side of my car is completely smashed."

The Orlando Police Department has not released any information about the suspects. Footage and images from outside Singleton's home showed skid marks from the suspected street racers, leading law enforcement to believe that the drivers were involved in illegal street racing.
"It appears the accident was caused by two of the vehicles racing, but the investigation is ongoing," law enforcement told FOX 35.
Singleton has lived in her home since 2016 and shared that she will be relying on friends and family since she now does not have a house or a car from the crash.
