POMPANO BEACH, FL — A 63-year-old Pompano Beach man died after losing control of his scooter in an afternoon crash on South Powerline Road, according to the Broward Sheriff’s Office. 

The incident happened around 1:34 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 1, in the 500 block of South Powerline Road near Palm Aire Drive. Detectives say Jeffrey Ferrer, who was riding a 2023 Italica RX 150 scooter, was headed south in the far-right lane when he entered the intersection. 

Investigators reported that a gray vehicle stopped at Palm Aire Drive, but as Ferrer continued through, he veered toward the center lanes. His scooter struck the raised concrete median, ejecting him into the northbound left-turn lane. 

Ferrer was rushed by Pompano Beach Fire Rescue to Broward Health North Medical Center, where he later died. 

BSO detectives said speed and impairment do not appear to be factors in the crash. The Traffic Homicide Unit is continuing to investigate.
