Henderson, NV - Two Hospitalized in Three-Vehicle Crash at Eastern and Wigwam Avenues

Henderson, NV (August 19, 2026) – A multi-vehicle crash in Henderson left two people hospitalized Wednesday afternoon, according to Henderson police.

Around 1:50 p.m. on August 19, Henderson police responded to a report of a multi-vehicle crash at Eastern and Wigwam avenues.

Police said the crash involved three vehicles and two people were taken to a local hospital. The extent of their injuries is unknown at this time.

Northbound Eastern Avenue was closed at Wigwam Avenue as crews worked to clean up. Drivers were urged to avoid the area.

Were You or a Loved One Injured in This Crash?

Nevada’s modified comparative negligence rule (NRS 41.141) lets each of the three drivers, and each person hurt, pursue a claim even while fault among multiple vehicles is still being sorted out. Crews were already clearing the scene at Eastern and Wigwam by early afternoon, and skid marks, debris, and each vehicle’s final position rarely survive that kind of cleanup for long. Nevada law gives each person hurt in this crash until August 19, 2028, two years from the date of the crash, to file an individual injury claim.
