Woman, 73, who died in crash Tuesday identified by coroner’s office
Authorities have identified a 73-year-old Las Vegas woman killed after her car landed upside down on Flamingo Road.
Clark County coroner's officials say Teresa Chang died of injuries from the crash, which happened a little before
1 p.m. on New Year's Day.
Police say Chang's 1996 Lincoln Towncar was traveling through the parking lot of the Gold Coast hotel-casino when she lost control and sideswiped an empty vehicle.
Authorities say she then drove through landscaping on the border of the parking lot and traveled onto Flamingo Road, where it hit a Nissan Altima.
Chang was pronounced dead at University Medical Center.
Police say the 44-year-old woman driving the Altima was taken to the hospital with moderate injuries.
