Man killed in Summerlin Parkway crash identified

Updated April 13, 2018 - 2:11 pm

The man who died in a rollover crash in the west valley has been identified by the Clark County coroner’s office.

The crash that killed Jeffrey Soloman Sedgh, 41, of Las Vegas, happened about 7:50 p.m. Thursday in the westbound lanes of Summerlin Parkway, east of the Buffalo Drive highway off-ramp, according to the Nevada Highway Patrol.

Soloman died at the scene of multiple blunt force injuries, and the coroner’s office on Friday ruled his death an accident.

The Highway Patrol said Sedgh’s Hyundai Elantra drifted to the right and struck the Buffalo Drive overpass, causing his car to roll over. Investigators were still working Friday to determine whether impairment, distraction or other factors played a role in the crash.

Sedgh’s death marked the 19th fatal crash investigated by the Highway Patrol this year.
