A fifth biker's death has been attributed to a crash associated with Bike Week. Henry Gordon Johnson, 67, of Deltona, died Tuesday at Orlando Regional Medical Center, from injuries suffered two days earlier when he lost control of his 2009 Harley-Davidson, the Florida Highway Patrol reported.

PORT ORANGE -- Retired home builder Alex Kajan remembers what a big deal it was when the Super Wal-Mart opened on Dunlawton Avenue nearly 15 years ago in addition to the Wal-Mart on Beville Road.

Since then, the growing city of nearly 56,000 residents have benefited from a Lowe's Warehouse, a Super Target, a Home Depot and other anchor stores and specialty chain restaurants.

But those pale in comparison to the open air Pavilion at Port Orange, a 550,000 square-foot retail and office complex complete with movie theaters.

DEBARY -- A 15-year-old boy riding his bicycle in DeBary late Friday night was struck and killed by a passing car, the Volusia County Sheriff's Office said.

The crash occurred at about 11:34 p.m. along West Highbanks Road near its intersection with Gracie Road. A 17-year-old driver, Nicholas Petersen of DeLand, was behind the wheel of a 1997 Nissan traveling east on West Highbanks Road that hit Brian Wentwood, who was riding his bike along the street, where he lives.
