Emergency Services Drill in Elko County Monday

The Nevada Highway Patrol is investigating a three-vehicle accident on Highway 50 in Carson City that sent at least three people to the hospital, two of whom had to be transported via Care Flight. 

NHP says they were called out around 11 p.m. Tuesday for what appears to have been a head-on collision. 

The extent of the victims' injuries are unknown at this time and NHP is still investigating whether alcohol or other impairments may have been a factor in the crash. 

Westbound Highway 50 was closed at Airport Road to make way for Care Flight, but NHP tells us the road should be reopened soon.Â
