LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A two-vehicle crash in the Las Vegas valley resulted in injuries to two women who had to be transported to a nearby hospital, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

On Sunday, July 28, a crash occurred around 7:30 p.m. near the intersection of South Nellis and Winterwood boulevards, near East Charleston Boulevard. Police said evidence at the scene and witness statements indicated that a 66-year-old woman driving a 2019 Chevrolet Trax attempted to make a left turn when she collided with a 22-year-old woman in a 2015 Honda Accord.

The Honda was traveling northbound on Nellis Boulevard in the rightmost lane, approaching the Winterwood Boulevard intersection. The Chevrolet crossed into the Honda’s path, causing the front of the Honda to hit the front of the Chevrolet. The impact caused both vehicles to spin out of control and run off the road, crashing into a block wall at the intersection.

Medical personnel took both drivers to a nearby hospital. The driver of the Chevrolet is in critical condition, according to police. There is no indication that impairment was a factor in the crash.

This is an ongoing investigation.

Qoo10's CEO pledges personal assets worth $58M to compensate Korean merchants affected by its liquidity crisis
The founder and CEO of Singapore-based marketplace Qoo10 has pledged to use his personal assets to secure about $58 million (80 billion KRW) to compensate South Korean customers and vendors affected by his company's liquidity crisis, which in turn resulted in failed payments to about 60,000 small merchants who sell through its Korean marketplace subsidiaries, TMON and WeMakePrice. During an emergency hearing held by the South Korean government to discuss Qoo10's liquidity crisis, Young-bae Ku, the company's founder, said he would secure the amount over the next 30 days. “I will sell my whole stake in Qoo10 or use it as collateral to deal with the situation,” Ku said.

New U.S. Commerce Department report endorses 'open' AI models
The U.S. Commerce Department on Monday issued a report in support of "open-weight" generative AI models like Meta's Llama 3.1, but recommended the government develop "new capabilities" to monitor such models for potential risks. Authored by the Commerce Department's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), the report said open-weight models broaden generative AI's availability to small companies, researchers, nonprofits and individual developers. For these reasons, the government shouldn't place restrictions on access to open models, it suggests — at least not before investigating whether restrictions might harm the market.
