LAS VEGAS (KTNV) -- Police are continuing to investigate a shooting that left a man dead Sunday morning.

The shooting happened around 7 a.m. near Flamingo Road and Swenson Street.

Upon officers’ arrival, they found a man who was suffering from a gunshot wound. Medical personnel declared him deceased at the scene. He was identified as 21-year-old Antone Toma Williams of Henderson.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department homicide detectives indicated that the victim had been in a heated argument with several individuals in the parking lot moments before the shooting.
