Two motorcyclists died in separate motorcycle wrecks in east Harris County, Texas, last Thursday, and in the week prior still another motorcyclist was killed in that area.
Deputies told The Houston Chronicle that one crash occurred Thursday, October 6, around 1 a.m. in the 1300 block of FM 2100 near the San Jacinto River when a 58-year-old Huffman man who was traveling northbound on his motorcycle failed to negotiate a curve and veered off the road. His motorcycle blasted through gravel and a grassy area and became airborne over a small creek, landing on the opposite bank.
The man died as a result of the crash. It’s not yet known whether alcohol or speed were a factor.
Another east Harris County motorcyclist died that same night when he was driving his motorcycle west on Beaumont Highway. The man, who was not wearing a helmet, hit the back of a westbound Chevrolet Camaro and was thrown from the motorcycle. He died at the scene.
The Lake Houston Observer reports that a third victim died on October 1 when an alleged drunk driver hit his motorcycle head-on in the 24000 block of FM 2100.
