Teenage shooting victim identified
Tuesday, Dec. 10, 1996 | 11:59 a.m.
A teenager shot to death in the Las Vegas Detention Basin near Red Rock Canyon has been identified as 16-year-old Ismael Arevinas.
Two teenagers were arrested Friday after a 16-year-old witness to the execution-style murder went to police.
Devan Rivera, 16, was arrested in his home on Brush Street near Charleston Boulevard. Kevin Houser, also 16, was arrested in his parents' Shore Heights home at The Lakes at 3:50 a.m.
Arevinas was shot to death Thursday "multiple times" with a shotgun and handgun, Metro Police homicide Lt. Wayne Petersen said.
The motive for the slaying was a fight over a girl, he said.
