Former NHP sergeant indicted in fatal DUI crash

27 08.08

LAS VEGAS—A dismissed Nevada state trooper has been indicted on charges he was under the influence of marijuana when he caused a three-vehicle crash that left one person dead and two others hurt.

A judge on Wednesday set arraignment Sept. 11 for Edward Lattin on a felony charge of driving under the influence of a controlled or prohibited substance resulting in death.

Lattin’s lawyer, John Watkins, declines comment.

The 46-year-old Lattin was a 20-year NHP veteran and a sergeant in charge of a unit that investigated fatal crashes when he resigned in July.

He faces a mandatory two to 20 years in prison if convicted. He remains free on $50,000 bail.
