(Review-Journal file)
A woman in the northeast valley died after being struck by a vehicle on Friday night, Las Vegas police said.
Officers were called to the area of Craig Road and Nellis Boulevard shortly after 7 p.m., Metro Lt. Yaz Yatomi said. A vehicle struck a woman in her 50s who appeared to be walking outside of a crosswalk.
The woman died at University Medical Center a short time after, Yatomi said.
Alcohol does not appear to be a factor and the driver stayed on the scene, Yatomi said.
The woman’s identity will be released by the Clark County coroner’s office.
