LAS VEGAS, Nev. (FOX5) – FOX5 has obtained a police report that says Nevada State Police found a bottle of whiskey in the car in the fatal wrong-way crash.

NSP said in the early morning hours of Oct. 25, in the area of ​​I-11 near Boulder Highway, 22-year-old Alyssa Scott was driving southbound, which is the wrong way in the northbound lanes, in a Toyota Corolla 2023 black.

The report states that while police were taking photos of Scott’s car, they found an open bottle of whiskey under the driver’s seat.

One car was able to swerve to avoid Scott’s car, but the car behind it was hit by Scott.

Officials reported that a silver 2012 Cadillac CTS was traveling north in the left lane when they saw the Toyota coming their way. They tried to get out of the way but ended up bumping into each other.

The driver of that car suffered a broken ankle.

The passenger in Scott’s car was 18-year-old Marilyn Rodriquez, who had to be ejected from the Toyota and later died at the hospital.

Two witnesses helped get Scott out of the car and said he smelled of alcohol.

Police drew blood on Scott before she underwent surgery for a broken leg.

NSP reports that Scott is facing multiple charges, including felony DUI, reckless driving, possession of an open container of alcohol inside a motor vehicle and failure to drive properly on a divided highway.

The Clark County Detention Center shows Scott is still in custody.
