A West Hartford man died over the weekend after the car he was driving went off the road and struck a building in Avon, police said.

Police received several 911 calls about a car off the road into a building at 12 West Main St. about 7:30 a.m., he said. The building houses a business on the first floor and apartments upstairs.

No one else was injured, Schmalberger said. The building did not have severe structural damage and did not need to be evacuated, he said.

Avon police and a team of regional crash investigators, the North Central Municipal Accident Reconstruction Squad, are investigating.
