Police also said the driver of the sedan remained at the site of the crash. The pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene. This is the 75th fatal crash that Las Vegas police have investigated in 2018.

How do you get 65,000 football fans to and from the Raiders stadium, starting in 2020?
Before allowing the project to continue, Clark County has multiple requests:
That a deconstruction plan be in place if the stadium project stops.
That close to 14,000 off-site parking spaces be ready within one year.
And that infrastructure upgrades wholly necessitated by the stadium be provided by the Raiders.
A 30-foot-wide pedestrian bridge spanning Interstate 15 to link the stadium to the Strip is planned.
Consultants expect almost a third of game attendees to walk from hotel rooms located within a mile of the stadium.
