Central Las Vegas crash knocks out power to more than 1,400
Las Vegas police are investigating a Friday morning crash that caused a power outage in the central valley.
The crash was reported at 3:20 a.m. Friday at Sahara Avenue and Mojave Road. Metropolitan Police Lt. Greg Munson said a vehicle rolled over and crashed into a power pole, causing an outage.
According to NV Energy, more than 1,400 customers were without power for several hours, but the outage was fixed before 7 a.m.
It’s unclear if anyone was injured in the single-vehicle crash because the driver fled the scene on foot.
