Las Vegas, NV (June 16, 2022) – An accident that took place late on Thursday afternoon, June 16, is the subject of an investigation being conducted by officers from the Las Vegas Metro Police Department.

A collision involving two vehicles was reported on northbound Interstate 15 at Exit 80 at around 12:55 p.m. According to the preliminary reports, the collision happened in the left lanes of the roadway, and an ambulance transported one individual to a local medical center after the incident. The most current status update on that victim’s condition has not been disclosed by the medical personnel, and the overall number of individuals who were hurt remains unclear at this time.

Investigators are still attempting to piece together what took place before the accident, but they have not yet provided any more information in relation to the collision.

We are keeping all of the victims who were hurt in our thoughts. We hope that they recover quickly.

Traffic Crash Injuries in Nevada

Around 420 people will have died in traffic accidents in Nevada by the end of 2021, according to official estimates, making it the deadliest year on the state’s streets in the past 15 years. There has been an almost 85% rise in fatalities since 2020, with alcohol and speeding being the leading causes of most of these collisions.

In Clark County, which is where the majority of the accidents took place, there were around 230 fatalities and a great number of injuries. Regrettably, it is abundantly obvious that the state of Nevada has an extraordinarily high incidence of catastrophic automobile accidents.

Multi-vehicle accidents involving a large number of drivers and passengers are all too prevalent in locations like Las Vegas, Carson City, Reno, and elsewhere in Nevada. Unfortunate consequences include financial troubles, chronic pain, and long-term health issues for those who have been affected by tragic events.

Families whose loved ones have died as a result of these catastrophes may find themselves in a position that is both difficult and unsustainable. Bereaved families may find themselves in financial ruin due to the high expenditures of medical treatment and funerals. However, if an accident that might have been avoided resulted in your or a loved one’s injury or death, you may be owed recompense.
