The Clark County coroner’s office Tuesday identified a man killed in a North Las Vegas shooting earlier this month.

Salamon Castillo, 36, died from a gunshot wound to the chest after being shot on June 17, near Dillon Avenue and North Bassler Street.

Police found Castillo shot around 6:35 p.m. and he died on scene.

As of Wednesday afternoon, an arrest had not been made in connection with the shooting. Police asked the public for help in identifying a person that they believe has information about the shooting.

Police released photos of a woman getting into a black Chevy pickup that was seen leaving the area of Dillon and Bassler near the time of the shooting.
