Updated February 27, 2022 - 6:55 pm

A man was shot to death Saturday morning at an apartment in northwest Las Vegas.

Police were initially called to the 5000 block of Madre Mesa Drive, near North Decatur Boulevard and North Rancho Drive, at 9:37 a.m. after a report of an unresponsive man, according to a Sunday statement from the Metropolitan Police Department. Arriving officers found the man suffering from an apparent gunshot wound, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Jail records show that Larry Underwood, 46, was arrested on a charge of open murder in connection with the shooting. He is scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday.

No other information was provided. The Clark County coroner’s office is expected to identify the man once relatives have been notified.
