LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — One person died after being shot in a vehicle in the parking lot of a business on Sunday, October 4, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
As of Wednesday, October 14, a man is behind bars in connection with the crime.
Police said officers responded around 8:06 p.m. near a business in the 300 block of South Decatur Boulevard near Meadows Lane.
As they were looking for a crime scene, police say they learned the victim was taken to a local hospital by another person and pronounced dead shortly after he arrived.
