Las Cruces, NM (May 1, 2024) – A tragic incident unfolded on Tuesday, April 30, when a 2015 Ford Explorer crashed into the Savers store on Main St just before 10 a.m. The vehicle penetrated the glass and aluminum façade, veering right into the self-checkout area before halting in the showroom.
Elijah Sanchez, a Savers employee, described the scene as chaotic with people screaming in pain. In total, 15 people were injured, including two employees. Pamela Kaye Nelson, 67, succumbed to her injuries. The other victims, aged between 30 to 90, were either hospitalized or treated on site.
The 69-year-old driver, who was attempting to park, reportedly confused the accelerator with the brake. She self-transported to the hospital post-collision. The investigation into this devastating crash continues.
