CAPE CORAL, Fla. A 21-year-old Cape Coral man was killed in an early Monday morning crash, the Cape Coral Police Department said. Joshua Robert Williams died when his 1995 Honda Nighthawk 750 motorcycle collided with a 2011 Chevrolet Camaro driven by Matthew Dylan Garrett, 18, of Cape Coral, police said. The wreck happened around 1:24 a.m. at Santa Barbara Boulevard and Trafalgar Parkway. Williams was traveling south on Santa Barbara at a high speed when he lost control of the motorcycle, leading to the crash, police said. He was wearing a helmet and eye protection. Neither Garrett nor his passenger were hurt, police said. It’s the fifth deadly crash in Cape Coral this year. Motorists were asked to avoid the area as southbound traffic on Santa Barbara Boulevard was shut down for several hours.
