Las Vegas, NV (Sept. 26, 2026) – Two people were rushed to the hospital with life-threatening injuries following a crash at the intersection of Marion Drive and Bonanza Road in east Las Vegas, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
Emergency crews responded just before 1 p.m. on September 26 after reports of a crash between a car and an SUV. Police said two occupants were hospitalized for treatment of life-threatening injuries. No further details, including which vehicle each victim was riding in, have been released.
The intersection was closed in all directions while investigators remained on scene.
This is a developing story. Details may change as the investigation continues.
Car Accidents in Las Vegas, Nevada
A crash that leaves two people with life-threatening injuries demands answers about what happened at that intersection before either victim is in a position to ask the questions themselves.
- Who may be liable: the driver of the car or the SUV, depending on which vehicle had the right of way through the intersection
- What investigators examine: the LVMPD crash report, physical evidence at the scene, and any traffic camera footage covering Marion Drive and Bonanza Road
- Comparative negligence: Nevada follows a modified standard (NRS 41.141), meaning an injured occupant can recover compensation even if partially at fault, as long as that share stays under 51 percent
Nevada law gives an injured person two years from the date of the crash, until September 26, 2028, to file a personal injury claim (NRS 11.190).
