Motorcycle Rider Dies Days after Accident

Daniel Morales

He was flung off his motorcycle two Sundays ago when he and his friend crashed into a guardrail along the Cristo Rey road. Reports are that Daniel Morales was driving a motorcycle that had no light and lost control and ran into the guardrail. He suffered several broken bones in his arms and legs and a head injury. He was first listed in critical condition, and then stable condition, and his family says they were rooting for his recovery. But on Wednesday night they got the call they were dreading: Morales had just died of a heart attack. His brother-in-law, Khader Habet told News Five why they were shocked to get the news.
