Julius Rogers, a 30-year-old Black man, was shot and killed inside a residence in a gated community in northwest Las Vegas on the evening of March 18, 2025. Police responded to a call at about 9:22 p.m. near Cheltenham Street at Cheyenne Avenue and Durango Drive and pronounced him dead at the scene from a gunshot wound.

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s homicide unit opened the investigation. Early findings suggested the shooting may have been an act of self-defense, and no arrests were announced while detectives continued their work. The file has been forwarded to the Clark County District Attorney’s Office for review to determine whether the shooting was justifiable or whether charges should be pursued.

Family and friends have been publicly mourning Rogers. Are there readers who knew him or who saw anything in the neighborhood that night that could help clarify what happened?
