Nine people were killed and one person was in critical condition Saturday following a six-vehicle crash in North Las Vegas, Nevada, according to reports.

The crash was a “chaotic event” that happened around 3 p.m. local time, Alexander Cuevas, a spokesman for the North Las Vegas police, told reporters, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

A driver in a maroon Dodge Challenger, speeding through a red light, appeared to have caused the crash, he said. The driver of the Challenger and a passenger in the vehicle were among the dead, he added.

One of those killed died after being transported to a hospital, Cuevas said. The critically injured person was being treated at University Medical Center, he added.

A total of 15 people were in the vehicles linked to the crash, the newspaper reported.

“We have not seen a mass casualty traffic collision like this before,” Cuevas said around 11 p.m. local time.

Some of the vehicles struck were pushed into a vacant lot nearby, the spokesman said.

The ages of the people who died ranged from children to middle-aged adults.
