A 39-year-old Las Vegas man was taken into custody by Metro Police after they say he fled the scene of a fatal hit-and-run Saturday morning.<\/p>\n
Officers received reports of the crash at 9:55 a.m. and responded to the intersection of Lake Mead Boulevard and Marion Drive, officials said in a news release.<\/p>\n
Evidence at the scene indicated a black 2006 Honda CBR 600 was traveling east on Lake Mead and approaching the intersection. The crash occurred when a blue 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe, driven by Jose Luis Ochoa, was traveling west and turned left in front of the motorcycle, police said.<\/p>\n
Ochoa fled the scene but was later apprehended, police said. Arriving medical personnel transported the motorcycle driver, only identified as a 34-year-old Las Vegas resident, to University Medical Center Trauma where they later died.<\/p>\n
Ochoa did not show signs of impairment, and was booked at the Clark County Detention Center on a hit-and-run charge, police said. The crash remains under investigation.<\/p>\n
