The Clark County coroner’s office has identified a woman who died after a crash Saturday morning in the northwest Las Vegas Valley.

The victim was 84-year-old Shirley Alexander from Las Vegas.

A Chrysler 300 traveling west on West Craig Road turned left onto Tenaya Way and crashed into a Toyota Prius that was traveling east on Craig Road, Las Vegas police said.

Alexander, a passenger in the Prius, wasn’t wearing a seat belt, police said. She died later at University Medical Center.

The Chrysler’s driver showed no signs of impairment.
