West Hartford Police said Friday that the operator of a motorcycle that was involved in a crash with a vehicle last month on Trout Brook Drive has died.

Police said that Christopher J. White, 61, of West Hartford, passed away on April 1, after being critically injured in a collision with a motor vehicle just before 6 p.m. on March 18 near the intersection of Trout Brook Drive and Lawlor Road.

Police received multiple calls regarding the crash of the vehicle and motorcycle, and when they arrived at the scene officers immediately began medical treatment of White, continuing until the West Hartford Fire Department and AMR ambulance personnel arrived to take over.
