IN BRIEF

ANOTHER VICTIM IN HOSPITAL

Drive-by shooting results in man's death

A man died after being shot in the neck during a drive-by shooting in a northeast valley neighborhood Saturday night.

The victim was at a house on the 4100 block of Ripple River Avenue, near Carey Avenue and Lamb Boulevard. Las Vegas police said that a dispute between several people occurred at the house and that a Hispanic man was asked to leave.

Witnesses told police that the man returned a short time later in a car and fired multiple rounds into the house at 10:34 p.m. The victim was shot in the neck and died at University Medical Center.

A second victim was shot in the shoulder. Police said he was listed in stable condition at UMC.

The suspect fled the scene in the car, but police do not have a description of the vehicle or the suspect.

INCOME WITHHELD

Unclaimed tax refunds top $19 million, IRS says

The Internal Revenue Service says more than 19,000 Nevada taxpayers have more than $19 million in unclaimed refunds.

The refunds are for people who didn't file a return for the 2006 tax year.

IRS spokesman Raphael Tulino says many people don't file a tax return because they don't meet the income threshold or aren't required to. But, he says, they might have had income withheld from a part-time job or been eligible for the earned income credit.

The IRS doesn't send notices to people who are owed a refund. It's up to taxpayers to file a return so they can figure out if one is due.
