Man, 66, dies in single-vehicle crash in far northwest Las Vegas

(Las Vegas Review-Journal)

A 66-year-old man died Friday night after his vehicle crashed into a tree in northwest Las Vegas.

The crash happened about 9:30 p.m. on North Oso Blanca Road south of West Farm Road, the Metropolitan Police Department said in a statement early Saturday morning.

The man’s name hasn’t been released yet, pending family notification.

The 2015 Lincoln MKZ was traveling north on Oso Blanca Road and “drifted toward the sidewalk,” striking a tree, police said.

The car stopped in the southbound lanes of the road. The driver got out of the car and “seemed to be having a hard time catching his breath,” police said in the statement. “The driver then collapsed on the ground.”

The driver was transported to University Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

The crash remains under investigation by Metro’s collision investigation section.
