NORTH LAS VEGAS, Nev. (AP) - Prosecutors in North Las Vegas have
filed misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter and other charges against
the driver of a 40-ton utility truck that police say ran a red
light and slammed into a sedan, killing the wife of a Nellis Air
Force Base airman and injuring two other women in November.

North Las Vegas police Sgt. Tim Bedwell said Monday that
47-year-old Mark Parker is due March 3 in North Las Vegas Municipal
Court on charges also including failure to obey a traffic-control
device and failure to use due care.

Parker could face up to 18 months in jail if convicted.

An NV Energy spokeswoman is declining comment about the company employee and the case.

Twenty-year-old Tayler Council died after the Nov. 4 crash at
Centennial Parkway and Losee Road.
