American custom motorcycle builder Jesse Rooke has been killed in a motorcycle accident on Carefree Highway in Phoenix. There are no details on the circumstances of the crash, which occurred on the morning of 5 April.
Rooke began building custom machines in 2002 after watching a motorcycle reality television show while recuperating from another bike accident which had left him partially paralysed, and gave him trouble walking.
He is survived by his partner Ashley Blair and daughter Scarlett.
