Brent Baldes was 39 when he died in the early hours of August 16, 2009, after a drunken dispute in a northwest Las Vegas neighborhood turned violent. Police responded shortly after 1:30 a.m. to the 8700 block of Harvest Valley Avenue, near Durango Drive and Cheyenne Avenue, and found him unresponsive. He was taken to MountainView Hospital and died from his injuries. The Clark County coroner initially withheld the exact cause and manner of death pending further determination.

Witnesses told detectives Baldes and another man had been drinking together before the fight. Investigators described a possible suspect who spoke with homicide detectives and cooperated with authorities. Police said the case would be reviewed by the Clark County district attorney’s office once the investigation was complete; early reports did not announce any arrest. If anyone was in that neighborhood the night of August 15–16, does any detail about the dispute or the people involved help the investigation?
