Motorcyclist dies after collision with sedan in Las Vegas
A motorcyclist died after a collision with a sedan on Tuesday, Las Vegas police said.
At around 7:15 p.m., a 2012 Buick Verano driven by a 48-year-old Las Vegas man hit a motorcycle at the intersection of Pollock Drive and East Warm Springs Road. The rider, who’s identity was not immediately known,was taken to Sunrise Hospital and later died, according to Metropolitan Police Department Lt. David Gordon.
No one else was injured, and police did not suspect impairment was a factor. Police said the collision occurred as the driver of the Buick was making a left turn from Pollock Drive onto Warm Springs. The motorcyclist was driving westbound on Warm Springs at the time of the collision.
East Warm Springs Road was closed in both directions for hours before reopening, Gordon said.
