2 Pronounced Dead after Sing-Vehicle Rollover Collision on US 93

ELKO COUNTY, NV (February 21, 2022) – Friday morning, Brandon Madieros and Molly Adams were killed in a solo-car accident on US 93.

Officers responded to the scene shortly after after 7:00 a.m., on the northbound lanes of the highway.

Authorities reported that the driver of a Dodge Ram truck was heading north when for undetermined reasons, he verged off the right side of the road.

Consequently, the vehicle went back across both lanes before heading to the left side of the road and rolling over. Upon impact, both occupants were ejected from the vehicle onto the road.

Due to the extent of injuries sustained, medics pronounced 33-year-old Madieros, of Gardnerville, and 33-year-old Adams of Lake Elsinore, dead at the scene.

Investigators say Madieros was driving, while Adams was sitting in the passenger seat.

Reports also indicate that the collision was located about 66 miles south of Wells. In addition, both victims were not wearing their seatbelt at the time of the crash.

Further circumstances surrounding the deadly rollover accident remain under active investigation.
