Metro Police said Jin Ackerman, 25, was arrested Friday, Dec. 26, 2014, in connection with a fatal shooting at a Walgreens story in northwest Las Vegas.

A local man who was shot and killed in a Walgreens robbery Friday morning was identified by the Clark County Coroner's Office on Sunday.

Antonino Isnit, 58, died of multiple gun shot wounds.

Metro Police said Isnit was working at the Walgreens at 8500 W. Cheyenne Ave., near Rampart Boulevard, when a man, later identified by police as Jin Ackerman, 25, entered the store and kidnapped a female employee at gunpoint. He took cash from the store's safe and stayed in the store for about an hour.

Ackerman then confronted Isnit and forced Isnit and the other employee into a back room, according to police. He then shot Isnit and fled the store. The female employee called 911.

Ackerman was arrested. He also is suspected in a Dec. 24 robbery at a Walgreens in the 9400 block of West Desert Inn Road, police said.
