On the morning of June 24, 2009, the body of 18-year-old Michael Guerrero was found in a vacant desert lot near the 2600 block of Holly Avenue, in the vicinity of Vegas Drive and Simmons Street in Las Vegas. Guerrero, a Hispanic male, had been fatally shot. Authorities treated the death as a homicide amid concerns about youth violence in the area at the time.

Investigators focused on a 15-year-old friend of Guerrero, Kevin Alejandro Vargas, as the primary suspect. Vargas was described as Hispanic, 5 feet tall, 140 pounds, with a tattoo of a star and the name Vargas on his right shoulder. His family reported him missing the same night, and police circulated a composite age-progressed image and said he may have fled to Southern California or crossed into Mexico. The motive was under investigation, including whether a personal dispute or gang-related activity played a role.

Does anyone have information about Michael Guerrero, Kevin Alejandro Vargas, or that neighborhood in June 2009?
