The funeral for Tampa Police Master Patrol Officer Victor Guerrero, 47, will be held at 10 a.m. Wednesday at St. Lawrence Catholic Church, according to a police spokeswoman.

Gurerro died Thursday. He was off duty and riding his motorcycle south on U.S. 41 in Pasco County in a 55 mph zone, about a mile north of State Road 52. A county-owned pickup turned into the path of his motorcycle, the Florida Highway Patrol said.

He was pronounced dead at St. Joseph's Hospital in Tampa, where he was airlifted after the 12:50 p.m. crash.

Guerrero lived in Brooksville and was a Tampa police officer for 20 years, police spokeswoman Andrea Davis said. He is survived by a wife, three children and three stepchildren.

The patrol identified the county employee as Daniel Whipple, 53, of Hudson. The crash is still under investigation, Trooper Larry Coggins said.
