A woman died Sunday afternoon in a vehicle crash in North Las Vegas.
The crash occurred around 12:30 p.m. on the Cheyenne Road overpass over Interstate 15, the Nevada Highway Patrol said in a news release.
One woman was pronounced dead at the scene. The other driver involved in the crash was taken to a nearby hospital in critical condition, police said.
All travel lanes on the overpass were closed in both directions Sunday afternoon between Losee Road and Civic Center Road, along with the I-15 southbound off-ramp and the I-15 northbound off-ramp.
Police encouraged drivers to avoid the area and use alternative routes.
Last Sunday, a 21-year-old man was found fatally shot inside a car north of the overpass on Interstate 15 in the southbound lanes.
