BOYNTON BEACH, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A Delray Beach man remains in critical condition after his e-bike slammed into the side of an SUV near Temple Torah of Boynton Beach on Thursday evening.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office tells BocaNewsNow.com that 46-year-old Thomas Klett was riding his e-bike southbound on the east sidewalk of Jog Road around 4:29 p.m., approaching the entrance to 8600 S. Jog Rd. At the same time, a 2025 Lincoln Corsair driven by Alicia M. Laurence-Bersch, 64, of Boynton Beach, was headed southbound in the left-turn lane and turning into that same entrance.
Investigators say Klett failed to stop and clear the roadway as the car turned in. He entered the roadway at a high rate of speed, and the front of his e-bike struck the driver’s side rear door of the Corsair. Klett was ejected from the e-bike in the crash.
He was rushed to Delray Medical Center, where he remains in critical condition, deputies say. Laurence-Bersch and her passenger, Shaun M. Bersch, 39, also of Boynton Beach, were not hurt. The crash remains under investigation.

This crash also occurred near Dunkin, as well Publix in Aberdeen, not to mention Paramount Spine and the PB County Water Utilities Dept. So why do you select Temple Torah (the Boynton Beach Synagogue) as your reference point?
I don’t think I have to elaborate further. It’s a little scary out there, and I don’t think that referencing a Temple when there are other less inflammatory ways to address this article has any benefit other than maybe being click bait.
Actually, the police used the temple as the actual crash location in official documents. Let’s not look for problems that do not exist.
