Daniel Villanueva, 28, was shot dead after a verbal argument turned physical outside a convenience store in the 6600 block of East Lake Mead Boulevard near Hollywood Boulevard in northeast Las Vegas. The confrontation happened about 6:15 a.m. on October 13, 2016; Villanueva was found with multiple gunshot wounds and the Clark County coroner ruled his death a homicide.

Police identified two suspects early in the investigation: Jordan Delgado, 19 at the time, and Victor Delgado, 23, who reportedly fled the scene in a small silver car, possibly a 2008 Mercedes-Benz. Authorities said a third person, the vehicle’s driver, could also face charges. After several years at large and believed to have left Nevada, information in July 2019 suggested the two brothers had returned and warrants for murder and conspiracy to commit murder were outstanding.

In February 2021 Victor Delgado Jr., then 27, was arrested by U.S. Customs and Border Protection at the Nogales, Arizona port of entry while crossing from Mexico; guns and ammunition were reportedly found on him and he was awaiting extradition to Las Vegas on charges tied to Villanueva’s death. Jordan Delgado remained sought by law enforcement. If anyone knew Daniel, the suspects, or saw activity near East Lake Mead Boulevard that morning, please share information with investigators.
