UMC Trauma Triage and Multi-Block Canvass

Emergency medical personnel from the North Las Vegas Fire Department initiated life-saving measures at both locations before rushing all three victims to the University Medical Center (UMC) Trauma Center in Las Vegas.

At the hospital, one of the wounded men succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead.

Medical staff reported that a second victim remains hospitalized in critical condition, while the third wounded man is in stable condition.

NLVPD homicide detectives and crime scene technicians cordoned off an extensive multi-block perimeter connecting McDonald Avenue and Juanita Circle.

Detectives are reviewing home security camera systems and interviewing nearby residents to establish whether the shootings began as an exchange of gunfire between parties or a targeted confrontation.

Coroner Verification and Investigation Next Steps

The Clark County Office of the Coroner/Medical Examiner will release the deceased victim’s official identity, along with the cause and manner of death, once next-of-kin notifications are finalized.
