Pedestrian hit in Las Vegas crosswalk last month dies of injuries

A man who was critically injured after being hit by a car last month in the central valley has died, Las Vegas police said.

The Clark County coroner’s office identified the man as 55-year-old Jeffery Hill.

Hill was struck by a Volkswagen Beetle on May 24 near the intersection of East Flamingo Road and Burnham Avenue, police said. He died Saturday at Mountain’s Edge Hospital.

Hill was crossing Flamingo in a crosswalk, but did not have a signal to walk, witnesses told police.

Driver impairment did not appear to be a factor in the crash, according to police.
