The Nevada Highway Patrol is working with the California Highway Patrol to investigate a fatal crash between a big rig and a pedestrian near Winnemucca.
On Monday, a California trucking company contacted NHP, saying they thought one of their Kenworth trucks may have been involved in a fatal crash, according to a release from the Nevada State Police.
Troopers determined the truck was involved and began working with CHP on part of the investigation since the trucking company is based in California.
The truck has since been located by authorities, and the driver and trucking company are cooperating with the investigation.
The investigation is ongoing, and anyone who witnessed the crash or has any information on it is asked to contact the NHP Elko Office at (775) 753-1111 or e-mail ncemirt@dps.state.nv.us.
