LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — According to Nevada State Police Highway Patrol Southern Command Twitter, a fatal crash that took 4 lives occurred Monday evening around 6 p.m.

A preliminary investigation revealed a Red Cadillac was traveling northbound in the southbound lanes.

A Toyota pickup was traveling southbound in the southbound lane.

I've lived in Vegas for just over two years and about once every other month, there's some drunken idiot who gets on the I-15 on-ramp heading in the wrong direction.

It usually is when there’s a driving the wrong way on the interstate fatal accident.
