5:08 P.M.
Las Vegas police are investigating a single-vehicle fatal crash near East Reno Avenue and South Eastern Avenue. Police say two vehicles were driving at a high rate of speed going eastbound on East Reno Avenue while passing South Eastern Avenue. The driver of the truck lost control and crashed into a wall. The male driver was ejected from the truck and died at the scene from severe head trauma. Fatal detail is at the scene investigating and they ask for people to avoid the area.
This fatal crash was 100% preventable! When speed and no seatbelt are combined, the chances of surviving this crash are zero!! The choices we MAKE when we are behind the wheel of a vehicle are, literally, life or death. #zerofatalities #changestartswithyou #changestartswithme pic.twitter.com/onWfSa7Vrf
