Woman run over repeatedly was out with motorcyclist

MIAMI — A woman who was run over several times on I-95 early Friday was on a first date, and somehow fell off a motorcycle, according to her family.

Jennifer St. Clair, who was 33, was picked up by a man on a motorcycle Thursday night. They were headed to downtown Delray Beach for a night on the town.

The man, who has yet to be identified, picked up St. Clair on a motorcycle. She rode on the back.

They met online. “That’s all the family knows, that she was on a date with a fellow, they believe they met online somehow,” said the family’s attorney, Todd Falzone. “Two other couples, who were also on motorcycles, also went along.”

The tragic incident, which happened just south of Atlantic Boulevard in Pompano Beach, is being investigated as a traffic homicide, Florida Highway Patrol officials said.

Several drivers accidentally ran over St. Clair around 1:30 a.m. Friday. Some drivers stopped and stayed, and others kept driving, according to FHP.

Some witnesses said they had seen a man on a motorcycle standing near St. Clair’s body, and then take off, Local10. reported.

“This is every parent’s worst nightmare,” Falzone said. “It’s gonna take a lot of work to figure out what happened, but we’re going to bring those accountable to justice.”

According St. Clair’s family, the driver of that motorcycle has not been located. FHP would not comment on the case because it is “still under investigation.”

No arrests have been made. However, according to Falzone, investigators have informed the family that the driver of the motorcycle has already appointed an attorney.

“He got lawyered up, immediately, like that night,” Falzone said, noting that it is still unknown which law firm has been hired.

According to the family, FHP says the mystery man on the bike was accompanied by his cousin, who called 911 at the scene, but then hung up on dispatchers.

“The cousin and the other motorcycle driver had gone ahead. When they noticed that Jennifer was not on the bike, the cousin pulled over and called 911,” Falzone said. “But then the man who was driving Jennifer approached him, and he said out loud to police: ‘here he is, forget it,’ and hung up.”

On Tuesday morning, the family begged the public for help in reporting any information.

“We need all witnesses to come forward,” said St. Clair’s aunt, Amy Gamber. “Do the right thing. My niece was just left there.”
