Police say a man accused of driving onto a Las Vegas sidewalk and hitting two pedestrians was so impaired he couldn't take a sobriety test.
An arrest report provides details about the Sunday evening crash that killed 52-year-old Brenda Smiley and injured a 39-year-old man.
Authorities say a Nissan Titan was traveling eastbound on Sahara Avenue when it made an abrupt right turn and drove into oncoming traffic on Valley View Boulevard. It then went up onto the sidewalk and hit the two before fleeing the scene.
Witnesses following the Titan guided police to the vehicle.
Authorities say 33-year-old driver Jason Manuma could hardly stand and was slurring his speech during his arrest. He told police he'd taken cough syrup earlier.
Officers say they found marijuana paraphernalia in the truck.
