A man was killed after a single-vehicle crash into a light pole Friday night in North Las Vegas.

The crash occurred just after 5:20 p.m. in the area of Craig Road and Donna Street, according to a North Las Vegas Police Department news release. Arriving officers found a white Nissan van that struck a light pole.
