The two-vehicle crash between a pickup truck and a Nissan Altima happened about 8 a.m., according to Nevada Highway Patrol Trooper Chelsea Stuenkel.

The pickup truck rolled over, and the driver had to be cut from the wreckage by North Las Vegas firefighters, Stuenkel said.

It was not immediately known what caused the crash, Stuenkel said.
