I don't like metal music, so I've never been a fan of Suicide Silence. However, when the band's frontman, Mitch Lucker died on October 31, I felt so bad for this young man whose music touched so many people's lives.
On October 31, Mitch was out riding on his black 2013 Harley-Davidson motorcycle in Huntington Beach, California. He was at the intersection of Main Street and 13th Street when he crashed into a pole and was thrown off his bike. As his motorcycle continued on without him, Mitch collided with a Nissan Titan pickup truck. The two people riding in the car were not injured, but Mitch was treated at the crash site by paramedics. He was then brought to UC Irvine Medical Center and died November 1st just after 6 a.m.
Suicide Silence announced Mitch Lucker's death in a post on Facebook that read:
There's no easy way to say this. Mitch passed away earlier this morning from injuries sustained during a motorcycle accident. This is completely devastating to all of us and we offer our deepest condolences to his family. He will be forever in our hearts.
R.I.P. Mitchell Adam Lucker - We Love You Brother
Memorials were held on Thursday, November 1st at Huntington Beach and Riverside. Heartbroken fans put on a candlelight vigil at the site of the crash.
Wherever Mitch Lucker is, I hope he's in peace, and my heart goes out to his family, friends, and fans.
