An 82-year-old woman injured in an April 3 crash died in June, Las Vegas police said on Tuesday.
The woman was a passenger in a 2025 Toyota RAV4 involved in a crash with two other vehicles at South Nellis Boulevard and Vista Flora Way, according to the Metropolitan Police Department.
The crash occurred around 11:30 a.m., when a 2014 Fiat 500 failed to yield to cross traffic and turned left into the path of the Toyota and a 2025 Honda Civic heading south on Nellis Boulevard, said a Metro news release. The Toyota struck the driver’s side of the Fiat, which then struck the passenger side of the Honda, police said.
The driver of the Fiat as well as the driver and passenger of the Toyota were transported to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center. The Clark County coroner’s office notified Metro that the passenger of the Toyota died on June 19 as a result of her injuries, police said.
Because the death occurred beyond the 30-day reportable limit, the woman’s death will not be counted as a traffic fatality within the Metropolitan Police Department’s jurisdiction, according to Metro.
The driver of the Fiat remained at the scene. Police said they did not suspect impairment.
