A 25-year-old Las Vegas woman, Jorgina Ivonne Hernandez, was killed as her car was stopped at a light in the northbound through lane of Boulder Highway at Flamingo Road about 10:55 p.m. Monday.
The Clark County coroner's office identified the victim and said she died of multiple trauma wounds. Hernandez was pronounced dead at the scene.
Metro Police said a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe driven by Clyde Raible, 32, of Las Vegas, struck the rear of her 2004 Hyundai Sonata stopped in the same lane.
Raible was taken to Clark County Detention Center. No bail has been posted and he will have a hearing on Wednesday, detention center records indicate.
This is the 78th fatal traffic crash in Metro Police jurisdiction this year.
