A pedestrian was stuck and killed by a car in the north Las Vegas Valley on Thursday night, police said.
Police were called to the crash at about 6:10 p.m. in the 5100 block of Ann Road, near North Decatur Boulevard, said Metropolitan Police Department Lt. William Matchko.
Police believe the pedestrian was not in a crosswalk when the person was struck by a car traveling east on Ann Road, Matchko said.
The pedestrian died at a hospital, he said. The Clark County coroner’s office will identify the pedestrian.
This is a horrible incident, and our thoughts go out to the injured victim and the family. One hopes the families of these victims carried Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage on their vehicle(s), as this coverage actually protects you and any family members living in your household in the event of a motor vehicle collision, whether in a car, on a bike, or walking as a pedestrian.
