Gay porn star Denis Reed has been killed following a motorcycle accident.
The 31-year-old Czech director, producer and adult actor reportedly lost control of his motorcycle at a sharp bend and crashed in a tree on Saturday (May 7), according to a statement on his official Facebook page.
Reed was reportedly rushed to hospital, but succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead prior to arrival. He leaves behind a wife and a young son.
