One person died and 13 others were injured when a driver intentionally steered his car onto a pavement on the crowded Las Vegas Strip and then accelerated in a deadly scene resembling “humans being mowed down like a lawnmower”, police said today.

Many of those hurt suffered serious injuries after yesterday’s crash. A 27-year-old man faces charges of murder and attempted murder, Deputy Police Chief Greg McCurdy said.
