About 3PM today Clark County patrol deputies responded to a single car collision at the intersection of Hwy 99 and 72nd Street. An adult female was deceased on the scene and a male adult was severely injured. As neither subject was still in the vehicle when deputies arrived, it's unclear, at this point, if either the man or woman was operating the car or if either were possibly a pedestrian impacted by the crash. The male subject was transported to SWWMC via ambulance. He was critically injured.
Initial investigation shows that the vehicle, a Mazda sedan was travelling south bound on Hwy 99 at a high rate of speed when it crossed the N/B travel lanes, drove into the parking lot of a Muffler repair business and struck a steel beam pillar in the parking lot. No other vehicles or persons were involved in the collision.
The roadway on Hwy 99 is temporarily shut down for the investigation. No further details will be released at this time.
