LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — After nearly a month, authorities have arrested a suspect in connection to a hit-and-run that killed a local skateboarder.
Elijah Malone, 26, was arrested on July 2 and was booked into the Clark County jail on hit-and-run-related charges, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

Ivan was described by his older brother Carlos as a sweet, good friend, who was his "right-hand man."
"Always there to support me, and just a good brother," Carlos told us when we spoke with him at his brother's vigil. "He just recently became an uncle. My son was just born on New Year's and he was super excited to become a great uncle."
