Washoe County deputies say they have arrested a man on a DUI charge after a car crash that temporarily shut down a portion of Mt. Rose Highway early Tuesday.
Deputies say 26-year Alexandrew Vail of Reno also faces a charge driving without a driver’s license. Authorities say an off-duty deputy saw the crash after 2 a.m. while driving home from work. A subsequent death investigation completely closed the highway until 8 a.m. The Washoe County Medical Examiner’s Office has identified the victim as 27-year-old Emily Giudici, who died on scene. The cause of her death is pending investigation.
