A 19-year-old man has been arrested for the murder of a man and the attempted murder of a 14-year-old girl on Aug. 3.
Police say that they received a call at 5:17 p.m. about a shooting at an apartment complex in the 6800 block of East Lake Mead Boulevard.
Upon arrival, they found an unresponsive adult male who had been shot near the pool. They also discovered a teenage girl who had been shot in the hand.
