Reno, NV (July 17, 2024) – A serious car crash in Reno on Tuesday, July 16, required support from local emergency crews. That evening, around 9:52 p.m., the accident was first reported near the intersection of Stevenson Street and W. 2nd Street. The crash victims were provided aid by attending medical personnel, and those requiring further support were later hospitalized by ambulance.
At this time, the severity of the resulting injuries has not been determined, and local reports did not reveal the number of people involved in the collision. The area was closed for several hours while paramedics were present, and tow trucks were later sent to remove the resulting wreckage and reopen the roadway. No further information is currently available. An ongoing investigation into the cause of the crash is in the hands of local authorities.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
Car Crashes in Nevada
Driving is the leading cause of fatalities and serious injuries in the United States, and you never really know if or when you will be hurt by a reckless driver. According to research, the state of Nevada's roads has only been riskier over time. The state has seen a considerable rise in the number of deadly collisions and traffic fatalities in the past ten years alone. A recent study from the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) states that 285 crashes in Nevada last year resulted in the deaths of 304 people, and nearly one thousand were injured in these collisions. You should partner with a qualified lawyer if you or someone close to you is unfairly hurt in a traffic accident.
