Hall, 31, already lost part of his left arm to a June accident on Plantation Street in Worcester.

The GoFundMe established by Hall’s family had an original goal of $55,000. On July 22, the total amount collected had reached $56,910. In their request for donations, Hall’s family said the amount was chosen arbitrarily - they are unsure how much money they’ll need to pay for all of Hall’s surgeries and recovery.

On July 21, Hall went into surgery to get his *left arm. Hall is working toward getting a prosthetic for that arm, according to Hall’s GoFundMe.

The collision that caused Hall’s injuries took place on June 23, police said, while Hall was on his way to work. Hall collided with a turning Toyota Prius. Upon impact, the motorcycle left the roadway, struck the guard rail and continued down Plantation Street, police said. Hall’s body was pushed along a guardrail.

The driver, who police described as elderly, did not stay at the scene of the accident, police said, but Hall was assisted by bystanders, some of whom chased down the driver.

So far, 817 people have made donations to Hall’s GoFundMe.
