LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Authorities are investigating a crash in the northwest valley that has left one person dead.
The crash happened on the 215 Beltway off-ramp at Ann Road.
Highway Patrol said they responded just before 6 a.m. and that the crash involved a commercial semi truck/trailer and a sedan.
Authorities said a white 2014 Chrysler 300 sedan was speeding south on 215 to the Ann Road off-ramp. The driver failed to slow down and to avoid hitting stopped vehicles steered right, losing control.
The Chrysler's right side hit a white 1997 Freightliner semi truck in tow with trailer in the rear of the trailing until, authorities said.
The Chrysler driver, 44-year-old Qaadir Isaam Amin, was unrestrained at the time of the crash and was pronounced dead at the scene.
