There was a five vehicle pileup on Sunday morning at Lake Mead Boulevard and Lamb Boulevard leaving one man critically injured.
Metro police detectives say a Chevy Tahoe driven by Fajardo J. Guadalupe, aged 34, was heading east on Lake Mead when he ran a red light, hitting an Oldsmobile Ciera that was northbound on Lamb. The Oldsmobile was then pushed into a Hyundai Sonata and a Nissan Armada that were stopped at a red light on Lake Mead. The driver of the Oldsmobile, who was a 34 year old man from Henderson, was taken to University Trauma Center with critical injuries. No other injuries were reported.
According to the police, Guadalupe then continued to drive after the collision and went on to hit a Cadillac Escalade before his vehicle eventually stopped. He then tried to flee on foot but was caught by a LVMPD patrol officer who happened to be at the scene.
Guadalupe was given a field sobriety test, which he failed, and he was then arrested for felony DUI with bodily harm and felony hit-and-run.
