Las Vegas firefighters responding to a report of smoke at The Arbors on Decatur Apartments late Tuesday afternoon found the smoke was coming from the badly burned body of a man nearby, said Scott Allison, Clark County Fire Department spokesman.
The apartments, at 2666 Decatur Blvd., were not on fire. The smoldering body was nearly a half-mile away from the apartments in a drainage ditch behind The Sports Authority store at 2620 Decatur, Allison said
Las Vegas police homicide detectives were called to the scene Tuesday night.
