Las Vegas, NV : Two people were killed in a two-car crash in the western Las Vegas Valley on February, Sunday 25th 2018

Two people were killed Sunday in a two-car crash in the western Las Vegas Valley, police said.

Las Vegas police were called about 4:45 p.m. after two cars collided on Rainbow Boulevard, just south of Westcliff Drive, Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Grant Rogers said.

A white Chrysler 300 was southbound on Rainbow when it hit the side of a Toyota Corolla that was turning left into a shopping center from the northbound lanes, police said. The Chrysler then jumped a curb and hit the side of Silver State Schools Credit Union at 170 S. Rainbow Blvd.

The driver was hospitalized at University Medical Center, and police said he was not impaired.

Police have not determined how fast the Chryler was going.

The Toyota flipped several times until coming to a stop in the southbound lanes of Rainbow on the opposite side of the credit union. Both the driver and the passenger, who was ejected from the car, died at the scene.

Neither the man who was driving the Corolla nor the woman who was ejected appeared to have been wearing a seat belt, police said.

Patty Rios, 41, said she was riding home in a van with her family when the driver of the Chrysler cut her them off as they approached the freeway offramp onto Rainbow. The Chrysler then hit the green light at the end of the offramp and accelerated through another green light at Westcliff, she said.

Then there was the collision.
