LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Back in February, police responded to the scene of a double homicide in a makeshift shelter. More than three months later, they are releasing an update on their investigation.
According to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD), Shayla Huey and Vince Dispoto were killed on Nellis Boulevard in Las Vegas on February 20, 2023.
LVMPD says the couple were in a relationship when they were shot sometime between the evening of Friday, February 17 and the morning of Saturday, February 18.
The victim's sister says Shayla's nickname was 'Bella' and that, "she had hit rock bottom. But, she was human just like all of us are. Someone didn't need to take her out like that."
Lieutenant Jason Johansson says investigators fear the case will run cold without help from the community.
