Driver flees crash scene

A juvenile driver of a speeding car crashed into two vehicles in North Las Vegas on Cheyenne Avenue early Friday morning and then attempted to flee the scene on foot, North Las Vegas police said.

The collision occurred around 7:30 a.m. between North 5th and Commerce streets when the driver of the speeding car lost control, hitting two vehicles, according to Sgt. Dan Ewing of the North Las Vegas Police Department.

A woman who was driving with her 6-year-old child was injured and taken to University Medical Center with non life-threatening injuries, said.

The driver of the Neon and two passengers ran away from the scene of the crashes but were caught a short time later near City View Park, a police spokesman said. One of the passengers had minor injuries.
