LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — The Clark County Coroner's Office has identified the two people killed in Tuesday's 12-vehicle crash at a Las Vegas intersection.
Edward Garcia, 38; and Adeline Duran Rincon, 20; were both pronounced dead at the scene of the collision.
Rincon was a passenger in what Las Vegas Metropolitan Police say was the at-fault vehicle, a 2011 Infiniti G37 driven by 19-year-old Jose Gutierrez.
LVMPD alleged Gutierrez was speeding on Cheyenne Avenue when he crashed into multiple cars that were stopped for a red light at Jones Boulevard.
Garcia was driving a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek that was involved in the collision.
A passenger from another car, a 24-year-old woman, suffered life-threatening injuries.
Gutierrez was taken to a hospital with serious injuries, and police said Wednesday morning he was still receiving continuous care.
He was booked in absentia on suspicion of four counts of reckless driving causing death or serious injuries. Someone had posted his bond on Wednesday, per court records.
Earlier this year, Gutierrez faced a charge of resisting a public officer, according to Las Vegas Justice Court records. He pleaded no contest, received a suspended jail sentence and was ordered to stay out of trouble and attend impulse control counseling.
A judge ruled in September that he satisfied those requirements and the case was closed.
