A recent motorcycle crash in Arcadia has left a 36-year-old man seriously injured and authorities on the hunt for the driver responsible. The incident occurred at the intersection of SE Airport Road and SE Airport Estates Street when a pickup truck made a left turn directly into the path of the motorcycle, causing a collision. Instead of stopping to help, the driver of the truck fled the scene—talk about a dramatic getaway!

The Florida Highway Patrol believes the vehicle involved is likely a black Ford F-150 from model years 2009 to 2014. As they delve into the investigation, troopers are urging anyone who may have information about the crash or the driver to come forward. The search for clues continues, and the community is hoping for justice.

What’s particularly troubling about incidents like this is how quickly they can happen and how often drivers evade responsibility. It’s a reminder of the importance of being vigilant on the road. Let’s hope the missing driver comes forward soon—after all, escaping consequences is far less appealing than a clean conscience!
