A 19-year-old Las Vegas man was arrested this morning in connection with the shooting death of a 16-year-old boy in North Las Vegas last month.
Soloman White was booked into the North Las Vegas Detention Center on one count of murder with a deadly weapon and four counts of attempted murder with a deadly weapon. North Las Vegas Police on Thursday had identified two other suspects in the case but said Friday the search for the other two men has been canceled.
Officers received a call about 6:40 p.m. May 26 of shots fired in the 5100 block of Cross Ranch Street, police spokesman Sgt. Tim Bedwell said. When police arrived, they found the boy, identified as Donald Troutman, with gunshot injuries, he said.
Troutman was taken to University Medical Center, where he died in surgery, Bedwell said. The coroner’s office said he died of a gunshot wound to the buttocks.
The shooting took place near North Fifth Street and East Washburn Road, not far from Mojave High School.







This is really sad. He probably did not even realize shooting someone with a gun was a crime. Happens so often. Where is the father of this young man? Had he not taught him gun safety at the shooting range?
This poor sap doesn't know his papa. He should have been at work instead of fighting kids. I'll bet that his family is real proud of this piece of work. If he were my son I'd do some retroactive birth control, I'd put a bullet in his head myself. We don't need him leaving his seed anywhere to spoil the gene pool.
Amazing how some people write as if they know this person. It is so easy to sit in the comfort of your home and comment on things we know nothing about.
For example:
petef, was this a gun safety issue, or just a random act of violence?
freddie_ray, how do you know this guy didn't know his papa? Would you actually kill your own son? Do you have a son? Or are you just shooting from the hip without the basis of facts?
rcknrllfreak, how do you know what this persons family feel.
The point is, three comments by three people who speak as if they know what they are talking about and clearly they have no clue.
No surprise here... typical gangbanger trash.

I agree. It looks like the typical grumpy bitter trolls who have nothing positive to contribute other than rant about how evil the world is.
Just look at Freddy Ray -- An imbecile with such demented twisted logic that he advocates his own demise.
Using his logic, that he would kill his own son, wouldn't that make him a killer just like the 19 year old who kill the 16 year old child?
These people are so consumed with their bigoted ideology that they leave no room for reason. Contributing nothing to society, I'm sure they would advocate their own demise.
my cousin is not a bad person and for the ones thats talking crap i think you all should shut the hell up...he is not guilty of this crime...and to freddie_ray you know nothing about my family...i would appreciate it if u leave the negativity somewhere else.
Go to daddy, he calls himself bubba in the big house. Bubba and friends are going to love you, consider yourself desert. You going to feel right at home, they'll treat like a queen! Smile and say, thank you daddy!

I am more versed in this type of groups of people than I care. There is no family responsibility raising these kids and they have zero respect for law, life, property. This is how I can comment without personally knowing the person, I know the way of life.I have had many crimes committed against me from these types, never remorse, never restitution. They will just don't care about anyone else.
I agree with the person who said how can you judge someone when you don't even know him. And as far as you people who comment on where his father is or how proud the parents are. You are full of " " first of all you don't know " " about Soloman I have known him since he was a young boy and it is not in his nature to kill someboyd so before you open you damn mouth maybe you should find out the facts. Who says the other boy was not a gang banger and where is his father is that fair to say. Yes, I feel for the family and yes it is said that a young man lost his life but it takes a village to raise a child so where were you? At home judging that's were like they the Bible says only God can judge those who judge will be judged. God bless to the family who has lost their loved one and God Bless to Solomons family it's a sad tradgedy. And to all of you ignorant people who are leaving the stupid " " comments watch what you say because it can happen to you.
I agree with jtgreen33, you're right they dont know Soloman and they shouldnt judge him...even if this was someone else and not my cousin i would still say the samething...so people can u please just let God deal with it because you wouldn't wont anyone to judge you.
