The car travelled about 1,000 feet down the street following the crash, investigators said. The driver and the other teens — three girls and a boy between the ages of 15 and 17 — fled the scene on foot. Officers chased them and took them into custody.
The man wasn't wearing a helmet, 6ABC reported, and was pronounced dead at the scene at 8:18 p.m. Police haven't released his name.
