Prosecutors Weigh More Charges After Las Vegas 12-Car Crash That Killed Two

The 19-year-old driver was released on a $20,000 bond.

Overview

  • Police say the silver Infiniti G37 was traveling at a high rate of speed and did not slow before striking vehicles stopped at a red light at West Cheyenne and North Jones.
  • Coroner’s officials identified the deceased as passenger Adilene Duran Rincon, 20, and driver Edward Garcia, 38, with several other people treated at University Medical Center.
  • Jose Gutierrez faces four counts of reckless driving resulting in death or substantial bodily harm, and prosecutors are considering additional charges.
  • Court records show Gutierrez posted a $20,000 surety bond, and the chief deputy district attorney questioned the use of standard bail in a case of this severity.
  • Detectives are seeking witnesses who observed the Infiniti’s driving pattern or the occupants’ behavior before the crash and are directing tipsters to Metro or Crime Stoppers.
