Two people are dead after a shooting in North Las Vegas Saturday afternoon, and police say the case appears to be an isolated incident with no ongoing danger to the public. Officers responding to the 3500 block of Nestled Oak Avenue just before 4:30 p.m. found two individuals suffering from apparent gunshot wounds, and both were pronounced dead at the scene.
According to a police release cited by the Las Vegas Review-Journal, North Las Vegas police are investigating the shooting and have reported no outstanding suspects and no known threat to the public. Investigators say their preliminary work indicates the shooting was an isolated incident involving only the two people who died.
What Investigators Know So Far
Per the same police release, the case remains under investigation, and no further details about the circumstances of the shooting have been released. The identities of the two victims have not been made public. The Clark County Coroner's Office will release their names once next of kin have been notified, the report notes.
Because the shooting is described as isolated and confined to the two deceased, officers have not indicated any broader danger to residents in the neighborhood surrounding Nestled Oak Avenue. Still, the lack of named suspects means the full picture of what happened remains unclear.
