Rosa Castrejon, 42, was found shot to death the morning of October 25, 2011, at Six Mile Cove, a remote Nevada beach on Lake Mohave east of Searchlight. A 911 call from visitors brought park rangers and Las Vegas police to the sandy shoreline about 9:15–9:16 a.m., where they discovered Castrejon deceased and her boyfriend gravely wounded; he was later airlifted to University Medical Center in critical condition. The Clark County coroner confirmed Castrejon died from a gunshot wound to the head.

Investigators say the couple had been camping at the cove when they were approached and shot multiple times. First responders reported the victims lying face down in the sand. Detectives released a suspect description and an artist’s sketch: a white adult male about 6 feet 4 inches tall, 210 pounds, muscular, short brown hair and a salt-and-pepper goatee. No arrests have been announced and the case remains unsolved.

Anyone who was in the Lake Mohave–Cottonwood Cove area that week or who recognizes the suspect description is asked to come forward with tips.
