Las Vegas, NV (November 10, 2026) – The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department responded to a deadly pedestrian crash near Glenn Davis Drive and Dennis Way. The crash happened just after 11:30 a.m. on November 10 in southeast Las Vegas, officials said. The pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene.
The victim has not been identified. Police said the victim was a man.
In an update, police said a man spotted an unoccupied car running in a driveway and began driving it toward the street. The homeowner stood in front of the car in an attempt to stop him, police said. The suspect accelerated, struck a vehicle, and fled before officers arrived.
Authorities said the car was later located, but no suspect is in custody. They added that the incident was isolated and there is currently no threat to the public. Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
This is a developing story. Details may change as the investigation continues.
When a Driver Leaves the Scene After a Pedestrian Crash in Nevada
According to preliminary Nevada Office of Traffic Safety data, 109 pedestrians died in Nevada crashes in 2025, 81 of them in Clark County. Police said the driver in this case fled before officers arrived, so a family may be unsure which insurance applies.
Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage is optional in Nevada, but insurers must offer it (NRS 687B.145). The Nevada Division of Insurance says it can respond when the other driver is uninsured, flees the scene, or lacks enough coverage. The policy terms decide who is covered.
A death also gives the decedent’s heirs and the estate’s personal representative the right to bring a wrongful death claim. Because the suspect has not been taken into custody, these are the legal points that matter most for a family right now:
- First steps: Ask police for the crash report number and the investigating unit’s contact, keep funeral and medical bills, and send insurer calls to one person.
- Who may be liable: The driver is the first focus once police identify the suspect, and an attorney can examine whether any other party played a part.
- Deadline: A wrongful death claim must be filed within two years of the date of death (NRS 41.085), which makes the deadline November 10, 2028. If fault is disputed, NRS 41.141 still allows recovery when a person is 50 percent or less at fault, with damages reduced by that share.
