LAS VEGAS, Nev. — A man from Minnesota and a woman from New Mexico were struck and killed by an SUV while crossing a busy street against a “don’t walk” signal at the downtown Fremont Street Experience casino mall, Las Vegas police said Thursday.

The driver, Mykael Terrell, 28, of Las Vegas, left the scene of the 7:40 p.m. Wednesday crash before she was stopped, arrested and jailed on suspicion of driving under the influence, reckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident, police said.

Terrell was scheduled for an initial appearance Thursday before a judge, according to court records. It was not immediately clear if she had an attorney who could speak on her behalf.
