The Daily Commercial reported recently that both motorcyclists were killed in a two-vehicle accident along County Road 44A in Eustis, FL on the evening of Sunday, May 2, 2021.  

According to a press release issued by officials with the Florida Highway Patrol, the incident occurred between 7:25 p.m. and 7:35 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) on Sunday, May 2, 2021 along County Road 44A near Eldorado Drive in the town of Eustis, FL, in the central Florida region of Lake County. 

A man from Rustis, 20 years of age, was riding a 2015 Yamaha motorcycle north on County Road 44A when for unknown reasons still under investigation he crossed the centerline of the roadway.
