LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — An investigation into a fatal shooting at a southwest Las Vegas valley home is ongoing on Monday morning, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department says.
Officers responded to a home in the 9800 block of Venus Lake Court, near Fort Apache and Gomer roads, just after 9 a.m. Monday, police said.
When officers arrived, they said they saw a woman who had been shot in the front yard of a home. She was taken to University Medical Center's trauma center, where she was pronounced dead.

The two began fighting and he returned to the sedan after shots were fired.
Investigators said they don't know what they were fighting about and believe the two knew each other.
Officers are currently canvassing the area looking for more evidence.
