2 men not involved with garage slaying, Metro says

Two men wanted by Metro in connection with a Thursday fatal shooting in a southwest valley garage have been questioned and are not connected to the slaying, police said.

Police on Friday released a security video and asked for the public's aid in finding the two men in it. On Saturday, police said the men were found and questioned, and that the "suspect remains outstanding."

No arrests have been made, Metro said.

Officers were called to the 7800 block of Limestone Arch Avenue, near Buffalo Drive and Blue Diamond Road, about 10:30 p.m. They found Jerelle Javanta Lamb, 30, of Las Vegas, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds in a garage, police said. He later died at University Medical Center.

Lamb was parking his vehicle when two men confronted him and a struggle led to the shooting, Metro said. The confrontation might have been drug or robbery related.

Anyone with information on the slaying is asked to call police at 702-633-9111. To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555 and www.crimestoppersofnv.com.
