A deadly weekend for motorcyclists on Las Vegas Valley roads continued Saturday afternoon when a fourth motorcyclist in a span of just over 24 hours died in a crash in South Las Vegas, police said.

Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Robert Johnson said in a text message that one person died after a motorcycle collided with a truck at Las Vegas Boulevard and Blue Diamond Road just after 4 p.m. Saturday. The intersection was expected to be closed at least into the evening hours on Saturday.

Impairment was not a factor in the crash, the lieutenant said.

As well, a motorcyclist died early Saturday morning after a collision just before 12:30 a.m. at West Oakey Boulevard at Western Avenue, according to a Metro news release.
