Arrest made in November robbery that turned deadly
Two men suspected in a robbery that turned deadly in November have been arrested, Las Vegas police said Wednesday.
Police are still looking for a third young man they say was involved.
My-Son McNair, 19, was arrested on Nov. 22, police said, and Daivion Moore, also 19, was arrested four days later. They each face one count each of murder with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to commit robbery and attempted robbery with a deadly weapon.
Detectives are now looking for a third man who is known as “Man-Man.” He is described as between the ages of 17 and 20, standing 5 feet 2 inches to 5 feet 5 inches, and weighing 120 to 140 pounds, police said.
Officers were called to the 1900 block of Simmons Street, near Vegas Drive, on Nov. 11 about 10:30 p.m. where they found 22-year-old Laura Ashley McKinney lying on the street and suffering from a gunshot wound. She later died at University Medical Center.
Police initially said that McKinney and a friend were walking when they were approached by the three men, one of them carrying a gun. McKinney was shot once in the chest sometime after they tried robbing her. The three men fled on foot, according to police.
