Officers from the Tampa Police Department are on scene of a single vehicle traffic fatality involving a motorcyclist in the area of eastbound Gandy Blvd. near the hump.
The crash occurred at approximately 8:45 p.m. on Saturday, June 22, 2019.
Officers are asking motorists to please avoid this area until further advised.
The eastbound lanes are completely shutdown due to the ongoing investigation.
Local traffic is being re-routed through the neighboring community.
Driving at a high reckless rate of speed on the highway at night…? Sad but completely avoidable and in utter disregard for the safety of everyone else usng that road.
TPD needs to start cracking down on the racing before they kill someone else.
@casperjasper You choose to ride like a dumb ass and die. It’s on you..i highly doubt you are doing thing by the letter of the law. Also, if you choose to ride 2 wheels, it doesnt give you the right to police other’s opinions. So. Stfu dumb ass! Only idiot is ypu. Someone was pomitely pointing out a mistake. You go off the deep end? Do youI u have mental issues? Apparently.
Lastly. You chose to ride. That doesnt mean you can trust every other driver on the road. It is an inherrent risk YOU chose. Not anyone else. This idiot was wromg and paid for it, becoming TOAD PIZZA at 180mph. I assure you. If you do this and ride down the side of traffic in unofficial lanes and other cycle stupidity, you will be toad pizza too! DUMB ASS
You’re the real dumbass. When u die, I’ll post the most obscene comments nobody has ever known. Get a life you worthless piece of shit.
Some of your comments are heartless. This young beautiful lady was a mother of four and a nurse- a really good one too. And a good person. Good people make mistakes too. I’m so glad you all think you are perfect and never make a poor decisions. My heart goes out to her beautiful babies and her family. And I hope they never read your cold, arrogant comments.
The young woman that was killed was my cousin. Your comments are heartless and inappropriate at this time. She leaves behind 4 young girls. You have no idea of what her life was or what if anything she was going thru. No one is perfect and everyone has made mistakes and this mistake we will all learn from and live with it forever. Please keep your inappropriate comments ts to yourself. She still was a human being that deserves to rest in peace and be judged by no one for what has happened.
Susana, she chose to do what she did. The blame lays on her. It is difficult to feel sorry for someone who put others at risk with selfish behavior. Come down off your high horse lest you fall and hurt yourself
