I'm trying to find information about a friend of mine who died run over by a truck in Las Vegas on the 1st of Jan 1997.The problem is that probably any record was registered under another name,not his.How could I find any possible information?I just know he was taken back to hungary to be buried.

You know the date. that's a help.

I'd start by seeking access to Las Vegas emergency response logs and police blotters for that day (and possibly the next several, in case of follow-up... watch fro inciden nnubers to cross-reference). That will likely include pertinant information.

To do this, you will need to write a Freedom of Information Request to LVPD, and probably to the county EMS dispatch. There are on-line guides to doing this (I've only ever used the NY state version, which is a more comprehensive records access law than the federal one).

Unless you have a lot of money for copies (25 cents a page is the going rate), I prefer to sit and look through the actual printouts myself. Hopefully you live near Vegas?

Also, you could contact the Hungarian embassy for their help, if they assisted with the transportation at all.

Look up the local news stations in L.V on the net go into archieves and look for the article about your friend. Good luck.
