Pompano Beach, FL – Rossano Henry Jr Killed in Fatal Crash

Pompano Beach, FL - Rossano Henry Jr Killed in Fatal Crash

Pompano Beach, FL (December 8, 2020) – A motorcyclist has lost their life after their involvement in a traffic collision that occurred this past Saturday evening, December 5 on a roadway in Pompano Beach. 

The collision is currently under investigation by the Broward Sheriff’s Office traffic homicide investigation unit. A man by the name of Rossano Henry Jr lost his life in the accident. It occurred when one Janet Nilsen was driving in a Kia Soul headed south in the center lane of the South Dixie Highway. Henry was headed south as well on his 2007 Suzuki GSX-R600 motorcycle. 

Henry was riding in the left thru lane when Nilsen turned left into a parking lot, crossing in front of Henry. This caused Henry to strike Nilsen’s driver-side door, T-boning her vehicle. The force of the collision ejected Henry from his bike. He was pronounced deceased at the scene of the crash by Pompano Beach Fire Rescue. 

No further information is available at this time as police continue their investigation into the circumstances of the accident.

We would like to offer our sincere condolences to the family of the deceased at this time. Our thoughts are with anyone affected by this crash.
