BOCA RATON, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2024) — 25-year-old Boca Raton man killed in high-speed motorcycle crash in West Boca Raton.

Brendan Carlos Brito was riding a Kawasaki Ninja northbound, passing the West Boca Raton Walmart on the 22100 block of South State Road 7 at a high rate of speed. At the same time, Elizabeth Aparecida Sena was making a left turn into the Walmart plaza on the east side of the roadway.

Brito's motorcycle front impacted Sena's front passenger fender. As the crash ensued, the motorcycle was rotated counter clockwise to an uncontrolled final rest in the outside northbound lane of South State Road 7.

Brito was ejected off of the motorcycle and came to final rest under Sena's Toyota Sienna.

Brito was pronounced deceased on scene by Palm Beach County Fire Rescue personnel. Sena was transported from the scene to Delray Medical Center with minor injuries sustained from this collision.
