Pedestrian critical after being hit by bus in northeast Las Vegas

A pedestrian is in critical condition after being hit by a bus Monday night in the northeast valley.

About 9 p.m. a Regional Transportation Commission bus was eastbound on Craig Road just east of Lamb Boulevard when a pedestrian stepped off the sidewalk in front of it, Metropolitan Police Department Lt. David Gordon said.

The pedestrian was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries, Gordon said. Metro’s fatal crash detail is investigating.

The right lane of eastbound Craig was blocked while police investigated, but reopened about 3:30 a.m.
