Stefon Clark
A Henderson man accused in an October shooting death in a North Las Vegas casino restroom will have his first court date Thursday.
Stefon Clark, 21, is expected to be arraigned on felony murder and robbery charges at 8 a.m. Thursday in North Las Vegas Justice Court.
Clark was arrested in connection with the death of Mario DeJesus-DeJesus, 33, of Las Vegas, who died from multiple gunshot wounds, according to the Clark County Coroner's Office.
According to an arrest report released Tuesday, at about 11:30 p.m. Oct. 22, police responded to reports of a man who had been shot at the Opera House, 2542 N. Las Vegas Blvd. A witness told police he was using a urinal when he overheard Clark demand money from another man. After the man left, the witness told police, Clark then pointed a gun at his head while at the urinal and said the gun was loaded.
The witness told police he gave Clark $200 and then was thrown across the room as DeJesus-DeJesus entered. Clark pointed the gun at him and demanded money, the witness said. Clark then shot DeJesus-DeJesus multiple times after DeJesus-DeJesus said he had no money.
Security guards held Clark in custody in the bathroom until police arrived, the report said.
Dejesus-Dejesus was taken to University Medical Center's trauma unit, where he died about 2:30 a.m. Oct. 23, officials said.
Police arrested Clark and booked him into the North Las Vegas Detention Center on charges of murder with a deadly weapon and robbery with a deadly weapon, Bedwell said. He is being held without bail on the murder charge.
