A Las Vegas man was critically injured when his car crashed through two brick walls on Friday, according to police.

Witnesses and evidence indicated Kenneth Fitzgerald, 33, was driving south on Hollywood Boulevard near Bonanza Road around 5:45 a.m. when he lost control of his 2012 Hyundai Genesis and began to spin, according to Las Vegas police.

Fitzgerald traveled off the right side of the roadway and crashed through two brick walls on the east and south property line of 734 Coral View Court, according to police.

He was transported to University Medical Center’s Trauma Center in critical condition.

Police said two 15-year-old passengers who were also in the car sustained minor injuries.
