The Metropolitan Police Department has released a video of a suspect in the killing of a woman in August and is seeking the public’s help in identifying him.
Just after 9 a.m. Aug. 4, Metro received a report of an unresponsive woman found near the intersection of Nellis Boulevard and Harmon Avenue. When officers arrived, they found the woman lying near a raised planter. She was pronounced dead at the scene, and there were no immediate signs of foul play.
The following day, the coroner performed an autopsy and determined the woman’s cause of death to be homicide.
On Thursday, Metro released this video of the suspect: https://youtu.be/vcD37lqFgew.
