LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Police are searching for a suspect in a deadly stabbing outside a bar in the Arts District early Saturday morning, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
Police responded just before 3 a.m. to the parking lot of the business in the 70 block of West Imperial Avenue.
When officers arrived, they found a man lying in the parking lot, suffering from an apparent stab wound. He was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
