1 person injured in central Las Vegas crash

Updated November 8, 2018 - 7:30 pm

A portion of Flamingo Road was closed for more than an hour Thursday morning in the central valley after an injury crash.

The crash was reported about 5:45 a.m. near the intersection of Flamingo and Swenson Street, according to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Metro Lt. Timothy Hatchett said two vehicles were involved in the crash. One of the occupants was taken to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center with injuries that were not life-threatening.

Westbound Flamingo was blocked off just east of the intersection while police investigated, but the lanes were opened again by 7 a.m.
