Four people who died in a three-vehicle crash Wednesday on Lamb Boulevard south of the 215 Beltway have been identified by the Clark County Coroner’s Office.

Allison Lai Ling Uyematsu, 26, Sheryl Kam Uyematsu, 56, and John Thomas Snide, 50, all of North Las Vegas, were pronounced dead at the scene, officials said.

Deonta Lozada Walker, 28, was taken to University Medical Center, where he died Thursday, according to the Coroner’s Office.

The crash happened about 5 p.m. on Lamb Boulevard near Centennial Parkway, North Las Vegas Police said.

Walker was driving a Nissan 350Z that veered into oncoming lanes and crashed head-on into a Toyota Camry carrying the other three people who died, police said.

The driver of a Ford F-150 pickup that also was involved in the wreck suffered minor injuries, police said.

The four-lane road is a popular shortcut between Interstate 15 and the 215 Beltway northwest of Las Vegas.
