Wrongful Death Attorneys Las Vegas

This morning just before 8 a.m., a fatal Las Vegas auto accident occurred at the intersection of East Sahara Avenue and Fremont Street.  This appears to be the second accident to occur somewhere on Sahara Avenue in four days, as a Las Vegas auto accident also occurred on West Sahara Avenue on Friday.  One tragic difference between the two crashes aside from the specific location, however is that the incident this morning took the life of at least one person.

According to witness accounts, the driver of one of the vehicles ran through a red light at the intersection and and smashed into two or perhaps three other vehicles.  One driver was pronounced dead at the scene, but no information is yet available regarding the conditions of anyone else involved in the crash.  We'd like to extend our deepest condolences to the family of the person who was killed and hope that this tragedy is somehow overcome with time.
