A man has died after a crash in an IHOP parking lot earlier this month.

On Feb. 3 around 3 p.m., the incident occurred in the parking lot located at 9651 Trailwood Drive, near Town Center Drive and Summerlin Parkway.

Las Vegas police said a Dodge Journey was parked in a stall when the driver entered the vehicle and put it in reverse as a passenger was opening the right front passenger door. The Dodge then hit a tree and the passenger was sent into a hand rail and onto the ground.

The 81-year-old male passenger was transported to UMC Trauma. On Feb. 20, the Clark County coroner notified Las Vegas police that the passenger had died at the hospital.

The crash remains under investigation.
