Man facing felony DUI after crash into Vegas house

LAS VEGAS—Authorities say a 10-year-old passenger is in critical condition and a driver faces felony drunken driving and child neglect charges after crashing an SUV into a home in Las Vegas. Police say the 2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer plowed through a block wall about 7:30 p.m. Sunday in a northwest Las Vegas neighborhood after two earlier crashes nearby.
Police say the 10-year-old Las Vegas boy was being treated for multiple serious injuries at University Medical Center.
The 25-year-old driver, Juan Esteves-Villegas, was treated at UMC and taken to the Clark County jail, where he is being held on $10,000 bail.
He's due in a Las Vegas court on Tuesday.
