LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — A second 18-year-old suspect has been apprehended in connection with a fatal shooting in the northwest Las Vegas valley.
On Friday, police announced the arrest of 18-year-old David Andres Valle as an additional suspect in the Jan. 2 shooting. He was arrested on Thursday and booked into the Clark County Detention Center for open murder with a deadly weapon, robbery with a deadly weapon and conspiracy to commit robbery, police stated in a news release.
