Las Vegas police search for suspect in June road-rage shooting
Police said Thursday that a shooting from June in downtown Las Vegas began as a road rage incident between two cars.
On June 4, officers arrived at the intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Bonanza Road to investigate reports of a shooting that injured two people.
A man in a car fired rounds into another car after an argument over a traffic incident, the Metropolitan Police Department said in a statement.
Police asked Thursday for the public’s help identifying the shooter. One arrest for another man involved in the shooting, Roman Guerrero, was made the day of the incident.
The shooter police are searching for fired 10 rounds in Guerrero’s direction, striking Guerrero’s wife in the shoulder.
As the shooter fled, Guererro shot back, striking a bystander who was uninvolved in the initial altercation.
Both the man and the woman injured survived.
