As a result of a rollover accident on Tuesday morning on U.S. 93 northbound, a Las Vegas man was killed.
According to Nevada Highway Patrol, just before 3 a.m., a black 2005 Dodge Ram pickup driven by Dexter Henry, 30, was traveling on northbound U.S. 93 passing mile marker 3 in Lincoln County.
Troopers say Henry allowed the pickup to drift right, and then steered the vehicle to the left, back onto the road. The pickup then crossed the centerline and Henry overcorrected, steering to the right causing the vehicle to rotate clockwise, cross the northbound lane and end up on the gravel shoulder where it skidded and then overturned.
Henry, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was thrown clear of the vehicle and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office at 4:50 a.m.
This marks Nevada Highway Patrol-Southern Command’s 42nd fatal accident for 2014.
