A 75-year-old man has died after crashing into the garage of a home in Green Valley Monday morning, authorities say.

The crash happened about 7:15 a.m. in the 800 Block of N. Placita De La Canoa, near North La Canada Drive, the Pima County Sheriff's Department said Tuesday in a news release.

The driver, Dennis Gass, apparently lost control of the vehicle he was driving after suffering a "medical event," the release said.

He died at the hospital.
