A four-vehicle collision closed one of the busiest intersections in Las Vegas — Flamingo Road at the Strip — early Thursday.
Police responded to the crash just before 3 a.m., Lt. Christopher Gorrell of the Metropolitan Police Department said in a text.
One of the drivers fled on foot. A small pickup came to rest facing northbound in the southbound lanes of Las Vegas Boulevard South.
Several minor injuries were reported and one motorist was transported to a hospital, Gorrell said.
As of 6:45 a.m., it was unknown if impairment was a factor, police said.
The traffic lanes were back to normal about 7 a.m.
