The city of Cleveland, Ohio, is reeling from heartbreak after the tragic death of 27-year-old Roacho Cinco, who was killed in a fatal motorcycle crash late Monday night, October 27, 2025. The devastating accident has sent shockwaves through the community, leaving family, friends, and fellow riders mourning the loss of a man remembered for his fearless spirit, loyalty, and larger-than-life personality.
According to Cleveland Police, the crash occurred just before 10:00 p.m. at the intersection of West 25th Street and View Road, a busy corridor often filled with nighttime traffic. Emergency dispatchers received multiple 911 calls reporting a serious collision involving a motorcycle and another vehicle. When officers and EMS crews arrived on scene, they found Roacho suffering from critical injuries after being thrown several feet from his motorcycle. Despite immediate lifesaving efforts, he was tragically pronounced dead at the scene.
Preliminary reports indicate that Roacho’s motorcycle collided with a vehicle attempting to turn through the intersection. The driver of the other vehicle remained on scene and is cooperating fully with investigators. The Cleveland Police Traffic Unit and Accident Reconstruction Team worked for several hours to piece together the events that led to the deadly crash. As of now, authorities have not confirmed whether speed, lighting, or roadway conditions played a factor, and the investigation remains ongoing.
