The suspect, Christopher Henderson-Reid, 27, of Las Vegas is accused in the death of a family member during an argument early Wednesday at an apartment complex in the 6500 block of Boulder Highway, police said.

Police obtained a warrant for the suspect’s arrest on a count of murder. He was picked up later the same day in California with the help of the Los Angeles Police Department, authorities said.
