Thomas Alexander Blas, 34, was fatally shot on the evening of April 18, 2016, at the Solis at Flamingo apartment complex, 3223 East Flamingo Road in Las Vegas. Officers responding to reports of a man screaming for help around 8:16 p.m. found Blas lying in an apartment doorway with a gunshot wound. He was taken to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center, where he was later pronounced dead.

Witnesses said four to five males, described as about 18 to 20 years old, fled the scene immediately after the shooting. Investigators have said the killing may have been related to a failed drug deal. No arrests had been made and the suspects remained unidentified. A GoFundMe organized by Victoria Medina sought funds for funeral expenses and counseling for the couple’s daughter, Jada, and Medina described Blas as a devoted father.

Anyone with information about this homicide is asked to contact authorities.
