Judge denies bond for motorcyclist in FMB crash

Published: Updated:

PUNTA GORDA, Fla.- A Lee County man accused of causing a crash on Fort Myers Beach while speeding away from deputies is being held on no bond.

Multiple people were sent to the hospital last month when authorities say Joey Pinheiro, 21, slammed into a car on San Carlos Boulevard.

Pinheiro went before a judge Wednesday morning in Charlotte County where he’s under arrest for violating probation.

A judge denied Pinheiro bond saying he may be a danger to the community.

Pinheiro’s next court date is on April 25.
