Detectives with the Broward Sheriff’s Office Traffic Homicide Unit are investigating a single-vehicle motorcycle crash that left a 68-year-old man dead in Deerfield Beach Saturday evening.
At approximately 6:06 p.m., Saturday, March 5, BSO Deerfield Beach District deputies and Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue responded to a single-vehicle crash involving a motorcycle near the 1200 block of South Military Trail. Preliminary investigation revealed that Rudy Dipietro was traveling southbound on a 2022 Harley-Davidson motorcycle on South Military Trail.
According to investigators, Dipietro was unable to maintain control of the motorcycle as he tried to maneuver through a curve in the roadway, which caused the Harley-Davidson to leave the road and strike a wooden fence.
Detectives say Dipietro was not wearing a protective helmet and sustained severe head trauma. He was pronounced deceased on scene by paramedics.
