Driver tip: If you’re heading through the southwest valley, avoid Fort Apache between Tropicana and Reno until the scene clears. Durango Drive and Rainbow Boulevard are the nearest north-south alternatives. Fatal and critical crash investigations often keep roads closed for several hours.
We’ll add an update here if police release more information or the road reopens.
