LOS ANGELES — Nearly every night, drivers speed down the street outside Rene Favela's home in Angelino Heights.
"People drive through at 2 in the morning, 2 in the afternoon," said Favela, who moved into the neighborhood just north of downtown Los Angeles 17 years ago with his wife, Bella.
Now with a child, the couple have grown concerned about the dangerous street races and stunts outside their front door — turmoil that neighbors say has been stirred up by the "Fast & Furious" movie franchise, whose fans flock to the Angelino Heights streets that star Vin Diesel's character calls home.
