Reno, NV (October 3, 2024) - On Wednesday, October 2, a major car crash in the Reno area required support from local emergency responders. The accident took place at around 8:15 p.m. at the crossing of E. Grove Street and Yori Avenue. The injured parties were provided immediate aid at the scene by attending medical personnel.
Ambulances were available to transport the injured parties to local hospitals for further support. The number and severity of the related damages have not been determined. The roadway was closed for several hours while emergency crews were present. Tow trucks were later dispatched to clear the resulting debris and reopen the road to outside traffic. An ongoing investigation into the cause of the collision is being handled by local law enforcement officials.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
