A 20-year-old woman has been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of a photographer in central Las Vegas Valley. Allysandra Blea was booked into Clark County Detention Center on Wednesday on charges of open murder with a deadly weapon, according to Metro police. Officers responding to a call shortly before 4:50 a.m. Saturday found the victim, later identified as 23-year-old Mark Gaughan, suffering from gunshot wounds to the neck and torso; he was pronounced dead at the scene. Detectives determined the incident stemmed from a photo shoot in which Gaughan was photographing Blea posing with a firearm. Police say the weapon discharged during the session, resulting in the fatal wound. The Clark County coroner ruled the death a homicide. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities urge anyone with information to contact Metro’s Homicide Section or Crime Stoppers.
