Steven Colburn, 59, was fatally shot in Las Vegas on the night of August 19, 2019. He and a female companion were sitting in a parked vehicle in the 3300 block of Thom Boulevard when an armed man approached at about 10:45 p.m., demanded the woman’s property and ordered them out. After they exited, Colburn ran; the gunman chased him and shot him multiple times, and Colburn collapsed in a business parking lot.

First responders took Colburn to University Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead about an hour later. The Clark County Coroner ruled the cause of death multiple gunshot wounds to the torso and classified the death as a homicide. The shooter fled before officers arrived and was described only as a thin man between 25 and 35 years old. No arrest had been reported as of late August 2019.

Colburn had been estranged from family for years due to struggles with alcohol; his daughter Samantha had been searching for him in hopes of reconnecting. Does anyone who was in the Thom Boulevard area on the night of August 19, 2019, remember seeing a thin man matching that description or other suspicious activity?
