The motorcyclist, 24-year-old Jeancarlo Seville, was thrown from the bike and was pronounced dead at the scene. The motorcycle accident caused a chain reaction resulting in two other accidents, one of which also involved a motorcyclist, who suffered major injuries. The third crash involved a family who had a baby and a dog in the car; there were no reported major injuries.
