Neither of the injured victims were seriously injured from the 1:40 p.m. crash. The impact led to pieces of the barrier being spread over the nearby sidewalk and road.<\/p>\n

\n

The operator of the vehicle was suspected of driving under the influence, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD). The vehicle involved in the crash appeared to be a Chevrolet SUV, according to Las Vegas TV station KLAS.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Police advised motorists to avoid driving near the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard South and East Flamingo Road through Thursday night.<\/p>\n

The road will be used for the upcoming Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix<\/a>. Practice driving for the auto race was scheduled for the road on Thursday night, and routine traffic was to be banned, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.<\/em><\/p>\n

KLAS<\/em> revealed that a loose water valve cover delayed the practice session. Driver Carlos Sainz\u2019s Ferrari struck the valve near the intersection of Flamingo Road and Las Vegas Boulevard.<\/p>\n

Teens to Appear in Adult Court<\/h2>\n

Four of the eight teenage defendants who have been charged in this month\u2019s murder of Jonathan Lewis Jr.<\/a> will have their cases heard in adult court. The four were identified as Dontral Beaver, Damien Hernandez, Gianna Robinson, and Treavion Randolph, according to Las Vegas TV station KTNV. <\/em>They range in age from 13 to 17. Each was a student at Rancho High School.<\/p>\n

The Las Vegas Review-Journal<\/em> reported the cases were automatically sent to adult court because the accused boys are either 16 or 17 years old. They are scheduled to appear before a judge on Friday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The four younger defendants will first appear in juvenile court, where a judge will consider whether to transfer their cases to adult court.<\/p>\n

The November 1 homicide took place in an alley near the Las Vegas school\u2019s campus.<\/p>\n

Incident Caught on Tape<\/h2>\n

Las Vegas police are currently searching for two other people of interest in the case, and authorities have yet to name any of the other defendants.<\/p>\n

\n

The defendants were seen in a video repeatedly kicking, stomping on, and punching Lewis. The 17-year-old lost consciousness and suffered critical head injuries, according to the DailyMail.com<\/em>. He died after being treated in the intensive care unit at University Medical Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The beating began after Lewis defended a young friend who was getting bullied<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
