Nevada State Police say one person died after a car crashed into the guardrail on I-80 west near Pyramid Way late last month. 

NSP says the crash happened around 4 a.m. on May 28th.

The preliminary investigation shows that a 2014 Dodge Challenger with three people was heading west on I-80 near Pyramid Way when for some unknown reason it hit a guardrail that smashed through the car. That's when they say the car caught fire.

NSP says the driver was pulled out of the car by a Sparks Police officer and the rear passenger escaped on his own, suffering serious injuries. 

NSP says a second passenger died on scene. 

The crash remains under investigation.Â
