5 people sent to hospital after central Las Vegas crash
A crash in the central valley late Tuesday left one person in critical condition.
The crash happened about 9:35 p.m. at the intersection of Cameron Street and Tropicana Avenue, Metropolitan Police Department Lt. David Gordon said. A man driving a Chevrolet pickup was making a U-turn at the intersection when his truck and a Toyota carrying five people collided.
All five Toyota occupants were hospitalized. Gordon said one occupant was in critical condition but was expected to survive.
Impairment wasn’t a factor in the crash, he said.
Gordon estimated nearby roadways should reopen some time after midnight Wednesday.
