A tragic street racing incident that occurred two months ago on Macland Road has resulted in the arrest of Antavious Waller. Police report that Waller and another individual were traveling at approximately 87 miles per hour, far exceeding the posted 55 mph speed limit. This dangerous speed led to a fatal collision when the motorcyclist, reportedly racing Waller, collided with an SUV. The impact was severe, with the motorcyclist landing on the woman's windshield. The 68-year-old occupant of the SUV sustained significant injuries, including a broken nose and two black eyes. A nurse who witnessed the crash provided immediate aid before emergency services arrived. Waller has been charged with homicide by vehicle, speeding, racing, and reckless driving, with authorities urging the public not to use roadways as racetracks.
