An off-duty Las Vegas police officer tragically lost his life in a devastating collision caused by a wrong-way driver earlier this month. The driver, identified as Fernando Jimenez-Jimenez, 31, was in the U.S. illegally, according to federal officials.
The fatal incident occurred on Dec. 12 when Jimenez-Jimenez drove a Ford F150 the wrong way on the northbound side of Interstate 15, resulting in a collision with the Toyota Corolla of Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) Officer Colton Pulsipher, 29. Both individuals lost their lives in the crash.
