Pedestrian death

A woman who died after being struck Monday morning by a semi truck on U.S. 95 near Cal-Nev-Ari in southern Clark County has been identified as 44-year-old Irma Rosales of Las Vegas, the Clark County Coroner's Office said.

The cause and manner of death are still under investigation, the coroner's office said today. The crash occurred at about 5:36 a.m. Monday.

Nevada Highway Patrol investigators examined the scene of the crash on the remote stretch of highway, said Trooper Kevin Honea.

The identity of the truck driver, who wasn't injured, wasn't released, Honea said.

Investigators have not determined whether the incident was an accident or a suicide, authorities said.
