A 10-year-old boy is in critical condition today after the 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer he was riding in crashed into a home.

The crash occured after the driver broke through a brick wall while fleeing two prior hit-and-runs Sunday night, Las Vegas police said.

The vehicle veered westbound and crashed through a brick wall before coming to rest in a home on the 2400 block of Bay Meadows Circle.

The 25-year-old driver of the SUV, Juan Esteves-Villegas, was arrested for felony driving under the influence and child neglect with substantial bodily harm.
