A 42-year-old woman driving a Toyota Sienna minivan pulled out of a private drive near East Golf Links and South Kolb roads about 7 p.m.  May 11, colliding with the motorcyclist while making a right turn, Tucson police said in a news release.

The motorcyclist, Cory Edward Loud, 30, was taken to a hospital. He died Wednesday, police said.
