  • Thomas Evans, Pedestrian, Killed by Motorist Trying to Avoid Site of Fatal Motorcycle-Truck Accident

    Two people are dead after a “chain reaction” crash on I-295 in Jacksonville, FL, Thursday night.

    State troopers say that around 10:40 PM, a motorcyclist, Emmanuel Luis Carmona, died after running into the back of a semi-truck. A second collision happened about two minutes later when Thomas Evans, 30, stopped his car and got out following the motorcycle accident. The driver of a Toyota Camry tried to avoid hitting the wrecked motorcycle and struck Evans. Both Evans and Carmona died at the scene. Neither driver was injured.

    If there was negligence on the part of one of the drivers or the auto manufacturer, Evans’ family may have grounds to move forward with a civil Wrongful Death case.

    According to Florida Highway Patrol, both riders were thrown clear of the motorcycle and into the street by the impact.

    Sadly, a third vehicle heading south struck the motorcycle’s driver, 63-year-old Leonard David Sclafani of Stuart, who was later pronounced dead at the scene. His passenger, who has not been identified, was taken to a hospital and listed in critical condition. The drivers of the two other vehicles involved were not injured, and FHP says the cause of the crash is under investigation.

    If there was negligence on the part of one of the drivers or the auto manufacturer, Sclafani’s family may have grounds to move forward with a civil Wrongful Death case.
