CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Cleveland community is heartbroken following the tragic death of 27-year-old Roacho Cinco, who lost his life in a devastating motorcycle crash on the city’s west side late Monday night, October 27, 2025.
The accident occurred shortly before 10:00 p.m. at the intersection of West 25th Street and View Road, where officers and emergency crews responded to reports of a serious collision involving a motorcycle and another vehicle. When first responders arrived, they found Roacho suffering from severe, life-threatening injuries. Despite immediate medical aid, he was sadly pronounced deceased at the scene.
According to Cleveland Police, early findings suggest that Roacho’s motorcycle collided with another vehicle in the intersection. The driver of the other vehicle remained at the scene and fully cooperated with investigators. Cleveland Traffic Investigators and Accident Reconstruction Units worked late into the night to collect evidence and determine the cause of the crash. The investigation remains ongoing.
