LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Police in Las Vegas are looking for two men believed to be involved in a homicide at an "apparent drug house" in the area of Charleston Boulevard and Cimarron Road on Sunday.

Officers were called to a home in the 8200 block of Ogee Drive at approximately 3:59 a.m., according to a press release from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. A man found laying inside the front door was pronounced dead by medical first responders.

Based on their investigation so far, police said it appears there was a knock on the door that morning, and one of the residents of the home opened the door.
