Metro Police are investigating the death of a man whose body was found Monday night at an apartment near downtown Las Vegas.
Officers were called to investigate a shooting about 6:40 p.m. at an apartment building in the 700 block of Jackson Avenue, near Owens Avenue and H Street, police said.
When they arrived, police found a man dead in the doorway of the home, Metro Lt. W. Graham said.
In a statement released today, officials said an argument among a group of people led to the shooting. At least one of the people at the apartment fled in the dead man’s vehicle, which was later found abandoned in the 2200 block of West Bonanza Road, police said.
No other details were available.
Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to contact Metro’s homicide division at (702) 828-3521 or to remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at (702) 385-5555 or online at crimestoppersofnv.com.
