Woman, unborn baby, killed in wrong-way Reno crash that left the other driver dead
RENO — Reno police have identified a woman who, along with her unborn baby, was killed in a wrong-way crash that left the other driver dead.
Police say 27-year-old Alisa Hardy-Orton, of Reno, suffered fatal injuries in the head-on collision Friday night.
Responding officers found Hardy-Orton and the other driver unresponsive at the scene on Somersett Parkway.
Police say Hardy-Orton was clearly pregnant.
She was rushed to a hospital but doctors couldn’t save her or her unborn child.
The other driver, who investigators say had been driving the wrong direction, was also pronounced dead at a hospital.
Police have not determined whether alcohol or drugs were a factor.
Authorities aren’t releasing the other driver’s identity because next of kin have not been found.
