The FHP said the Nelson Webber was riding a 2005 Honda motorcycle west on KOA Street when a car traveling south on Monterey slowed but failed to stop before entering the intersection.
The front of the car struck the right side of the bike, which was redirected into the path of an SUV, the FHP said.
Webber struck the left front of the SUV and was pronounced dead at the scene, troopers said.
According to the FHP, the car fled the scene but the driver of the SUV, who was not injured, remained.
Florida troopers said a part found at the scene may have been from the car involved in the crash, and authorities are looking for a green 2008-2010 Honda Accord that is likely missing its front bumper.
Anyone with information about the crash or the car is asked to call FHP at 407-737-2213 or Crimeline at 800-423-TIPS.
A GoFundMe was created to for Webber’s funeral and memorial.
