Crash kills woman, 75

Thursday, June 26, 1997 | 11:48 a.m.

A 75-year-old driver killed seconds after pulling out from a Boulder Station hotel-casino parking lot may have been at fault in the two-car accident, Metro Police said.

Janie Franschman of Las Vegas was attempting to turn left from the west parking lot into northbound traffic along Lamb Boulevard when the driver's side door of her 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass was hit by a southbound vehicle.

Gulzar Kular, 42, of Las Vegas, appears to have had the right of way when his 1997 Pontiac Transport van struck Franschman's car, police said.

Kular and his two passengers, Gurnam Singh, 40, and Gurpreet Singh, 15, also of Las Vegas, were treated at the scene for minor injuries and released.

The accident remains under investigation.
