Man fatally stabbed in east Las Vegas fight identified

A man who was fatally stabbed Sunday evening during a fight in the east Las Vegas Valley has been identified.

Vinny Garcia Hill, 32, died of multiple stab wounds and his death was ruled a homicide, the Clark County coroner’s office said on Wednesday.

The Metropolitan Police Department said officers were dispatched to the 3100 block of North Nellis Boulevard in reference to a fight and possible stabbing. Arriving officers located the man later identified as Hill suffering from several stab wounds lying in a parking lot.

Hill was transported to an area hospital where he later died, police said.

Detectives said Hill and the suspect “exchanged words inside a business,” according to a news release. The two later exited the business and began fighting in the parking lot.

The suspect then reportedly pulled out a knife and stabbed Hill multiple times, police said. The suspect fled the area before police arrived, and additional details have not been released.
