Two people sustained head and spinal injuries and had to be airlifted from Wheeler Pass Sunday morning following an ATV accident.

Las Vegas police received a call about 9:30 a.m. that a man and woman, part of a group of six people, had been injured in a crash, said Metro’s Lt. John Liberty.

Metro’s search and rescue airlifted the riders from the remote trail about 1 p.m. They would most likely be taken to University Medical Center, Liberty said.
