Las Vegas, NV (September 13, 2025) – A deadly multi-vehicle collision occurred early Saturday morning on Interstate 11 near Decatur Blvd, leaving one man dead and three others injured, according to the Nevada Highway Patrol.
Trooper Shawn Haggstrom reported that the crash involved three vehicles and was first called in around 6:09 a.m. on the northbound side of I-11. Responding units arrived to find one man deceased at the scene. Emergency medical teams treated and transported three additional individuals who suffered minor, non-life-threatening injuries to a local hospital.
The severity of the crash led to the complete closure of all northbound lanes on I-11 at Decatur Blvd. Traffic was redirected to the Decatur on-ramp, and officials noted that closures may shift as the investigation continues. Authorities have not yet released information regarding the cause of the crash or whether any of the drivers involved will face citations or charges.
The freeway remained closed for an undetermined period as investigators worked to document the scene and remove damaged vehicles. No names have been released pending notification of the victim’s next of kin.

Fatal Accidents on Nevada Highways
Crashes on high-speed roadways like Interstate 11 often result in severe consequences, especially when multiple vehicles are involved. Saturday’s collision near Decatur Blvd is a somber reminder of how quickly lives can be lost and changed due to highway accidents. Even with emergency response teams arriving quickly, the force of impact in such cases often leads to catastrophic outcomes.
I-11, though newer compared to other interstates, still carries heavy traffic volumes, particularly through the Las Vegas metropolitan area. Interchanges like Decatur Blvd require drivers to make quick decisions amid merging traffic and changing speeds—factors that increase crash risk.
When a fatal accident occurs, the investigation can take several hours as law enforcement works to determine fault, document the scene, and notify family members. During this time, traffic disruptions can spread across nearby routes, adding further complexity to an already tragic situation.
For those affected by such incidents, the aftermath is often overwhelming. Families may face sudden loss, funeral arrangements, unanswered questions, and the financial burdens that come with unexpected tragedy. Survivors, even with minor injuries, can experience long-term emotional and physical challenges.
