Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department(LAS VEGAS) An arrest has been made over the murder of a homeless man living in a Las Vegas drainage canal that happened two months ago.
The incident occurred on Feb. 20 at approximately 2:40 a.m. when the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department received a report of an unresponsive male located by a drainage canal near Arville Street and Harmon Avenue, just two miles west of famed Las Vegas Boulevard.
"The investigation led by the LVMPD Homicide Section indicates the victim lived inside the drainage canal where the shooting took place," authorities said in a statement released on Monday. "After being shot, the victim exited the canal and collapsed."
