Woman hospitalized in June after central Las Vegas crash dies

Updated July 22, 2019 - 3:53 pm

A 63-year-old Las Vegas woman has died after being hit by a car last month in the central valley, police said Monday.

The woman, identified Monday by the Clark County coroner’s office as Sonia Alegre Pinedo De Cordova, was pronounced dead Friday afternoon of complications from the blunt force trauma she suffered in the June 14 crash. Her death was ruled accidental by the coroner’s office.

The Metropolitan Police Department has said that the crash happened just before 9:55 a.m. at Flamingo and Lindell roads, where Alegre Pinedo De Cordova was struck by a 2016 Mazda 3 while crossing Flamingo outside a crosswalk. The driver remained at the scene and was not impaired at the time of the crash, police said.

The woman’s death marked the 63rd traffic-related fatality investigated by Metro this year.
