Reno, NV (July 20, 2024) - On Saturday, July 20, at least one person sustained injuries in the aftermath of a car crash in the Reno area. That morning around 5:18 a.m., the accident took place at the intersection of Wedekind Road and Highview Court. There were confirmed injuries at the scene, but the severity and number of the resulting damages have not been determined.
The injured parties were provided aid by attending medical personnel, and the victims needing additional treatment were later hospitalized by ambulance. The area was temporarily closed while emergency crews were present, and tow trucks were needed to clear the site of the resulting wreckage and reopen the roadway to outside traffic. No additional information has been provided at this time. Nonetheless, an ongoing investigation into the cause of the crash is in progress.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
