A man was shot and killed outside a central Las Vegas laundromat on Monday night, police said.
Abraham Acosta, 32, never hesitated to help others, even if it was just a stranger looking for a lighter, recalls his older brother after senseless shooting.
The shooting happened at the Hawaiian Marketplace near Las Vegas Boulevard South and Harmon Avenue, according to Metro homicide Lt. Ray Spencer.
“He was a great brother, a great father, a kind and loving person who wouldn’t hurt anyone,” the victim’s older sister Nisha Taylor said. “That’s why I don’t understand why.”
Las Vegas police are asking for the public’s help in reporting large parties after months of violence at illegal short-term rental properties in the valley.
