Violent crash forces stoppage in NASCAR Xfinity race at Bristol

Sheldon Creed was running in 15th place during the first stage of Saturday's NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Bristol motor Speedway, trying to move forward. But 74 laps into the event, he got hit from behind by Dean Thompson and spun out.

Creed locked the car down and came screeching to a halt at the exit of Turn 4, sitting sideways on the track. Most of the field was able to narrowly avoid, but not Brennan Poole.
