A man died early Sunday morning after a shooting blocks from McCarran International Airport.

Police responded about 1:20 a.m. to an apartment complex on the 1200 block of East Hacienda Avenue, near Maryland Parkway. Officers found a man suffering from multiple gunshot wounds, the Metropolitan Police Department said.

The man later died at Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center.

Police said the man was inside an apartment when he was shot multiple times through the window. The shooter then fled the area.

This is the 37th homicide Metro has investigated this year, and the 43rd homicide investigated in Clark County. Anyone with information about the victim or the shooting can call Metro’s homicide section at 702-828-3521 or Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555.
