Pair sought in slaying investigation

Las Vegas police were searching Wednesday for two "persons of interest," a mother and son, in connection with the slaying of a man found dead in a northeast valley apartment Monday afternoon.

The victim's name was not released.

Police said they were called to an apartment about 12:20 p.m. at 1830 N. Pecos Road, near Lake Mead Boulevard, and found the man's body in the master bedroom.

An autopsy Tuesday determined the death was a homicide, police said.

During the investigation, Michelle Costello and Peter Costello were determined to be persons of interest.
