Wednesday, May 24, 2000 | 10:23 a.m.

A murder warrant has been issued for a man accused of killing the son of local NAACP President Gene Collins.

Andre Collins, 31, was found dead inside an east Las Vegas recording studio April 25.

Police said Tuesday a warrant charging Christopher Berarducci with murder with a deadly weapon has been issued.

Police are also looking for the man's wife, Trina Diane Berarducci, who may have been a witness to the murder.

Gene Collins, who took over the Las Vegas chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in January 1999, has said his son was an aspiring musician who was just beginning to realize his potential.
