A suspected drunken driver was arrested in connection with a fatal two-car collision early Saturday in the Spring Valley area, Las Vegas police said.
Yonas Nera, 19, of Las Vegas, was booked into the Clark County Detention Center on suspicion of driving under the influence after the crash.
At about 3:45 a.m., the driver of a 2022 Hyundai Sonata was heading west on West Flamingo Road approaching Lindell Road at a high rate of speed when the driver of a 2013 Dodge Dart traveling east on Flamingo turned left into the path of the Hyundai.
The front of the Hyundai collided with the right side of the Dodge, which then left the street near the northwest corner of the intersection while the Hyundai continued west before stopping in the road.
Both cars became engulfed in flames.
