Their statements say that Jalen Terry-Collins was on a motorcycle going northbound on the roadway. Somehow, the motorcycle left its lane and hit the curb. This caused the motorcycle to fall over and eject Terry-Collins. Terry-Collins ultimately succumbed to the injuries he sustained in the crash.

There isn't any clear information on what may have caused this awful event. It could be anything from tire failure to road hazards to some other reckless driver that left the scene. I know some will just assume the victim did something wrong. Obviously, that possibility is worth consideration, but I too often see folks blame motorcyclists just because they're motorcyclists. Not only is that disrespectful to the family grieving their loss, it's outright irresponsible, as it can let important details slip through the cracks. My hope is authorities handling this tragic event don't fall into that all too common trap.
