VALLEY ROADWAYS
Two people killed in separate crashes
Two people were killed in separate single-vehicle wrecks on valley highways early Saturday morning, authorities said.
The first wreck occurred about 4 a.m., when a motorcyclist crashed on U.S. Highway 95, just south of Ann Road, said trooper Kevin Honea of the Nevada Highway Patrol.
The motorcyclist was taken to University Medical Center, where he died about 11 a.m., Honea said.
The second crash happened just after 7 a.m. on Summerlin Parkway near Town Center Drive.
Honea said a Chrysler PT Cruiser convertible left the roadway, entered the center median and struck an embankment, causing the vehicle to overturn.
The 19-year-old woman driving the Chrysler was pronounced dead at the scene, Honea said.
She was wearing a seat belt.
The cause of both wrecks remained under investigation.
The identities of those killed were not released Saturday.
