A 15-year-old was fatally shot in the northeast valley during what Las Vegas police described as a “drug transaction.”
The discovery was made about 9:40 p.m. in a neighborhood near Wetlands Park, police said.
The homicide during a drug deal occurred Oct. 22, 2023, near East Charleston Boulevard and North 28th Street, according to the Metropolitan Police Department.
Las Vegas police investigated a shooting death after the victim was dropped off at a North Las Vegas hospital.
A third person is in custody after a fatal shooting in the northeast valley last month that stemmed from a physical altercation.
Police are seeking the public’s help to find a woman in connection with a December shooting in the east Las Vegas Valley in which the victim recently died.
