A woman is dead and a 21-year-old Molino man is critically injured after their motorcycle was rear-ended Thursday night on U.S. 29 in Escambia County.
The man was traveling northbound on U.S. 29 on a yellow Honda motorcycle with his female passenger, whose age and origin are unknown at this time, at approximately 10:51 p.m. when he entered a roadway construction area lane closure and proceeded to stop, according to a Florida Highway Patrol report.
At the same time, a gray Toyota Tundra pickup truck towing a utility trailer, driven by a 43-year-old Century man, was traveling northbound on U.S. 29 approaching the construction area.
The front of the Toyota struck the rear of the Honda and the two occupants of the motorcycle separated from the vehicle and landed in the roadway. The pickup truck continued north, moving to the right onto the east shoulder before coming to a stop. The truck’s driver was uninjured.
The investigation is ongoing.
