Zhihao Li, a 40-year-old Hispanic/Latino man, died after a shooting inside a Las Vegas home in the early morning hours of February 4, 2016. Around 2:30 a.m. at a residence on Nookfield Drive near Buffalo Drive and Flamingo Road, a shouting match between Li and two other men escalated when one of the men pulled a gun and fired. Li was struck in the head and taken to University Medical Center in critical condition; the Clark County Coroner later ruled his death a homicide from a gunshot wound to the head. The other intended target was not hit.

The day after the killing authorities identified a suspect and said an arrest warrant had been issued for Fuyan Liao, charging first-degree murder in Li’s death and attempted murder for firing at the other man. Police described Liao as a 56-year-old Asian male, 5 feet 6 inches, 152 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes, who used different aliases. Investigators said Liao fled the west valley home in a white 2009 Infiniti SUV with Nevada plate 712ATZ and remained wanted as of the last public update in February 2016.
