Local fatalities illustrate bad trend in motorcycle accidents

Caleb Roch, a 20-year-old Champaign Centennial graduate, was killed in a motorcycle crash in June.

His death and those of a Broadlands couple, a Westville couple, a Champaign man, a Clinton man, two Mattoon men and an Indianola man drive home a tragic trend: More people, locally and nationwide, are dying in motorcycle crashes.
