Las Vegas, NV (May 30, 2022) – Officers from the Las Vegas Metro Police Department are now investigating an accident that happened on Monday, May 30, and wounded one or more persons.

At around 11:30 p.m., police responded near the scene of a multi-car accident after receiving a report about the event, which happened on the westbound 215 Southern Beltway at Exit 3 to Valle Verde Drive. Two automobiles crashed in what seemed to be a rear-end collision as traffic in the vicinity halted, according to the first reports.

As a consequence of the event, emergency medical personnel transferred at least one patient to a nearby healthcare facility in an ambulance. Detectives are still piecing together what happened and haven’t revealed any other details.

We are thinking about all of the wounded victims and wish them a full and swift recovery.
