Florida resident loses life in tragic mishap during Harley-Davidson motorcycle trial run, according to police.

A man’s Harley-Davidson test drive ended in a fatal crash at a Florida dealership, police said.

In a press release, the Titusville Police Department said that officers responded to the Miracle City Harley-Davidson location when the fatal accident occurred on Monday at approximately 4:15 p.m.

Police said that an investigation revealed that the unidentified man was test-driving a motorcycle at a nearby shopping center when he had a fatal accident.

Authorities said that the man “lost control” of a 2014 motorcycle he was test-driving and crashed into the exterior wall of an unoccupied storefront.

“There’s no protection. If somebody bumps you in a car, you get a dent in a door. They bump you on this thing, you probably lose a leg,” he said. 

Christopher Maglione, a witness who works in the Titus Landing area, told FOX 35 that the motorcycle was “going the wrong way” down the nearby street.

“I’m incredibly shocked. I’ve never heard of anything like that happening in this plaza before ever,” Maglione said.
